India Cracks Down on Satire as Voter Roll Protests Grow

Indian artists face content takedowns as protests intensify over the Special Intensive Revision, which has removed over 130 million voters from rolls. Stand-up comic Brijesh Jha's parody video was deleted by Meta, while police briefly detained Rahul Gandhi during a march to the election commission. The government issued nearly 195,000 content-blocking orders between March and July.
