Indian police launched an investigation on Sunday into allegations of sexual harassment against officers during protests in the capital against the country’s election commission.
Protests began on Friday demanding the Election Commission of India (ECI) chief Gyanesh Kumar step down, alleging wrongdoing during a large-scale voter-roll revision that has struck millions of names from the lists.
The ECI has rejected allegations of wrongdoing. Kumar himself has not commented.
