The head of European Parliament’s panel urged the Narendra Modi government to meet its pledge to promote and protect human rights.

The European Parliament’s Subcommittee on Human Rights on Monday cautioned India against targeting religious minorities in the country, particularly Muslims. It urged the Narendra Modi government to meet its pledge to promote and protect human rights.

In a statement, Maria Arena, the chief of the panel, said that protests over the Citizenship Amendment Act have led to “arbitrary detentions and an unnecessary loss of life”. She said that journalists and peaceful critics were being arrested under “draconian counter-terrorism and sedition laws”, adding that the authorities were targeting human rights activists.

“Marginalised communities, religious minorities, particularly Muslims, a vocal and vibrant civil society and critics of government policies have been under increasing pressure for a long time,” her statement read.

Arena cited an Amnesty International India report and said that the Delhi Police had committed human rights violations during the February 2020 communal riots in the city, which left over 50 people dead, hundreds injured and thousands displaced.
