Modi government should play by the rules, not misuse power against citizens | The Hindu editorial

An editorial in The Hindu argues that the Modi administration must adhere to constitutional limits rather than employ state authority against citizens. It references the October 10 demonstration, where thousands of activists, students and political figures faced arrests, travel bans and heightened security. The piece questions the scope of preventive policing, the safeguarding of peaceful assembly and the broader protection of fundamental rights.
