新德里 -- 新德里周日为第二日青年抗议做好准备,抗议者要求印度选举委员会主席辞职,此前法院下令释放“蟑螂”运动创始人阿比吉特·迪普克及另外两名高级领导人。

NEW DELHI -- New Delhi braced for a second day of youth protests demanding the resignation of India's election chief on Sunday, as a court ordered the release of "Cockroach" movement founder Abhijeet Dipke and two other senior leaders.

迪普克是蟑螂人民党的创始人,他和其他领导人在周六其飞机抵达德里时被拘留,因为该运动计划在新德里中心的詹塔尔曼塔聚集数千人。他们在周日早上被带到 magistrate 面前。

Dipke, the founder of the Cockroach Janta Party, and the other leaders were detained when their plane landed in Delhi on Saturday as the movement planned to gather thousands of people at Jantar Mantar in Central Delhi. They were produced in front of a magistrate early on Sunday.

“条件:一年内不得扰乱和平,”蟑螂人民党法律负责人拉特纳·辛格在 X 上的一篇帖子中宣布他们的释放时这样表示。

"Condition - no breach of peace for one year," the CJP's legal head Ratna Singh said in a post on X announcing their release.

活动人士和社交媒体影响者 Dhruv Rathee 也是被拘留者之一,他因不再参加任何进一步抗议的条件,于午夜后获释,一位不愿透露姓名的内政部官员如此透露。

Activist and social media influencer Dhruv Rathee, who was also among those detained, was released past midnight on condition he did not participate in any further protests, said an interior ministry official who declined to be named.

警方拘留了超过 2000 人,并封锁了德里市中心以阻挠周六的抗议活动。尽管地铁站重新开放,移动互联网服务恢复,但周日,数千名警察和准军事人员仍继续在全城部署。警方表示,首日抗议中被拘留的大多数人是在周六深夜获释的。

Police detained more than 2,000 people and locked down Delhi's city centre to thwart Saturday's protest, and thousands of police and paramilitary personnel continued to be deployed across the city on Sunday although metro stations reopened and mobile internet services were back up. Most of those detained on the first day of protests were released late on Saturday night, police said.

反对党和纳伦德拉·莫迪总理政府的批评者指责当局对抗议者使用了过度武力,而一个联合国机构则呼吁当局确保和平集会的权利得到尊重和落实。

Opposition parties and critics of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government criticised what they said was the high-handed use of force against the protesters, while a UN body called on authorities to ensure that the right to peaceful assembly was respected and fulfilled.

印度外交部周日表示,联合国的做法是“选择性的”,其声明构成了“对印度内政的不 warranted 干涉”。这些抗议活动要求选举委员会主席 Gyanesh Kumar 辞职,原因是选民名单的修订被批评者称 disproportionately 有利于莫迪执政的印度人民党(BJP),该党已执政超过 12 年。

India's foreign ministry said on Sunday the UN's approach was "selective" and its statement constituted "an unwarranted interference in the internal affairs of India." The protests are calling for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over a revision of voter lists that critics say disproportionately benefits Modi's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which has been in power for more than 12 years.

自九月下旬《印度快报》报道库马尔的两名副手在内部就选民名单修订、登记程序和数字系统提出多项担忧以来,印度各地一直在发生零星抗议。

Sporadic protests have been going on across India since the Indian Express newspaper in late September reported Kumar's two deputies raised several concerns internally about voter list revisions, registration procedures and digital systems.

选举委员会表示,内部 deliberations 中出现不同意见是正常的,并否认偏向任何一方。

The Commission says differing views are normal in internal deliberations, and has denied favouring any party.

莫迪的印度人民党指责反对派团体试图通过错误质疑合法选举程序来破坏国家民主。

Modi's BJP has accused groups opposed to it of trying to undermine the country's democracy by wrongly questioning legitimate electoral processes.

该党引用的选举委员会数据显示,在核查过程中,选民名单中删除了约1.3亿个姓名——这一数字超过日本的人口,其中包括6300万搬迁人员和3000万无法追踪的人员。

Election Commission data cited by the party shows about 130 million names, more than the population of Japan, have been deleted from electoral rolls during the verification exercise, including 63 million people who had relocated and 30 million who could not be traced.

印度人民党和选举委员会否认存在操纵的指控,尽管反对党称,穆斯林选民和其他少数群体——这些群体不太可能支持印度教民族主义执政党——受到删除的影响尤为显著。

The BJP and the Commission deny allegations of manipulation, although opposition parties say Muslim voters and other minorities, who are unlikely to support the Hindu nationalist ruling party, are disproportionately impacted by the deletions.

“蟑螂党”最初是一个在线讽刺团体,后来迅速发展成为一个施压组织,其针对试卷泄露的街头抗议最终导致莫迪的教育部长辞职。

The cockroach party, which began as an online satire, rapidly evolved into a pressure group, with street protests against exam paper leaks culminating in the resignation of Modi's education minister.

该党在其社交媒体账号上称其对库马尔的抗议为“第二季”,并表示将持续抗议,直至印度的选举系统得到改革。

The CJP has called its protests against Kumar "Season 2" on its social media handles, and said it would not stop until India's election system was reformed.
