Senior leader Kapil Sibal accused the Modi administration of stifling dissent, labeling public protest as a criminal act.

Kapil Sibal, a veteran politician, publicly charged the Modi government with curbing dissent across the country. In his remarks, he asserted that the space for legitimate protest has narrowed to the point where expressing opposition is treated as a criminal offence. Sibal’s comments reflect growing concerns among opposition figures about the administration's approach to civil liberties. The statement was made without reference to any specific incident, underscoring a broader critique of the current political climate. No official response from the government has been recorded at the time of reporting.
