India cracks down on youth protests as anger grows against Modi and election chief
The protests focus on the Election Commission's voter list revision, which the opposition claims disenfranchises millions. The government denies the allegations, saying the revision aims to eliminate duplicate entries.
What the coverage shows
NPR and the Associated Press both frame the story around youth protests in New Delhi and growing anger at Modi and election authorities. NPR foregrounds a security crackdown and says authorities detained thousands of protesters, while AP instead leads with the young protesters returning to the streets and says a nationwide campaign is intensifying. Both extracts connect the protests to the voter list revision, but that detail is only explicit in AP’s wording.
