Indian police intervened to stop a meeting of prominent activists, academics and politicians discussing global issues ahead of a summit of the Group of 20 industrialized and developing nations that will be hosted in New Delhi next month, the meeting’s organizers said Sunday.
The meeting also featured speakers who were critical of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government’s role in hosting the G-20 summit, saying it was using the event to bolster Modi’s Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party ahead of a general election next year.
“They had erected tents outside the building. And there was a considerable gathering of people in an area where Section 144 had been imposed,” Sain said. Jairam Ramesh, an opposition Congress lawmaker, said it is “extraordinary that Delhi Police are stopping people from attending the We20 meeting.”
