Here's to women like @ReallySwara who use their voice to speak out against bigotry, misogyny and violence - and refuse to bow down. #UntrollIndia #HappyWomensDay2020

Mohammed Zubair’s continuing detention is an alarming reminder that you are not allowed to speak the truth in India. Debunking fake news is not a crime. @zoo_bear must be immediately and unconditionally released. #FreeZubair #ProtectDissent

In 2018, India witnessed a massive crackdown on freedom of expression and human rights defenders. Let's stand up for our constitutional values this new year and tell the Indian government that its crackdown must end now. #AbkiBaarManavAdhikaar

The Government of India's decision to prevent academic Ashok Swain from meeting his ailing mother by cancelling his Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) status is cruel. The authorities must stop punishing #AshokSwain just because he is critical of the govt.
Ashok Swain seeks Delhi HC intervention to meet ailing mother in India after OCI status cancelled

At the time of her arrest, Safoora Zargar, a research scholar at @jmiu_official, was 3 months pregnant. The Government of India has ruthlessly arrested a pregnant woman and sent her to an overcrowded prison during #COVID19! DEMAND HER RELEASE NOW: bit.ly/FreeSafoora

Today, activist Umar Khalid spends his 2nd consecutive birthday in jail. He's been incarcerated simply for exercising his rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly. He must be immediately and unconditionally released. #MorePowerToUmar

Detention of prominent human rights activist @TeestaSetalvad by the Indian authorities is a direct reprisal against those who dare to question their human rights record. It sends a chilling message to the civil society & further shrinks the space for dissent in the country

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's remark at an election rally yesterday where he called Muslims as 'infiltrators' demonises the Muslim community and puts the community at further risk of human rights violations. This toxic rhetoric needs to end now. #NarendraModi

In the backdrop of Municipal Corporation of Delhi using JCB bulldozers to raze down shops of Muslims in Northwest Delhi’s Jahangirpuri yesterday, UK Prime Minister's inauguration of a JCB factory in Gujarat is not only ignorant but his silence on the incident is deafening. 1/4
