UN experts call on India to stop using 'excessive force' against protesters

UN experts have urged Indian authorities to stop using excessive force against protesters. They also want an independent investigation into how the authorities have acted.

Experts at the United Nations (UN) called on India on 21 October 2026 to stop using excessive force against protesters, Al Jazeera reports.

The experts are also pressing for an independent investigation into the conduct of the Indian authorities toward demonstrators.

The available source material gives no further details. It does not say which protests are at issue, where or when they took place, how many people were affected, or which UN experts issued the appeal. These details are therefore not included here. The report will be updated once more information is available.
