On Sunday, several protesters were detained by Goa Police during a demonstration targeting chief election commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Noteworthy individuals, including Ferdin Rebello, the former chief justice of Allahabad high court, were not allowed to enter the protest area. Instead, demonstrators gathered outside the Goa Police headquarters, demanding Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation due to alleged electoral roll irregularities, raising alarms about citizens’ rights to peaceful assembly.
