A new inquiry by Amnesty International alleges Indian security forces used excessive force against student protesters. The report details the deployment of tear gas, pellet guns, and even electric shock devices during demonstrations. These protests were led by Generation Z activists, raising concerns about the treatment of young people exercising their right to assembly. Amnesty’s findings suggest a pattern of disproportionate response to student-led dissent. The report does not specify the context of these protests, but details the tactics used against demonstrators. These actions have prompted calls for investigations into potential human rights violations by security forces. The findings highlight growing concerns surrounding freedom of expression and policing tactics in India.
