House Arrest or Censorship by Stealth? Tehseen Poonawalla, a venture capitalist and consultant, has alleged house arrest by the Delhi Police following his protest against E20 fuel.
His social media updates describe a heavy handed response to peaceful dissent, raising questions about free speech in India.
Poonawalla's protest on August 1st, just before Independence Day, was deliberately timed to coincide with celebrations of democratic values.
