Police detained several people during protests over changes to India’s voter rolls.
Protests continued in New Delhi against changes to voter rolls that opponents say could remove eligible voters or favor the governing party.
Demonstrators also called for the chief election official to resign. Police intervened after some protesters breached barricades.
Election officials defend the verification effort as necessary to clean the rolls, while critics want stronger correction and appeal mechanisms.
The dispute places election administration and voter access at the center of a growing political confrontation.
