P Chidambaram writes: Freedom, food and fuel

Citizens around the world are protesting against various dire necessities such as freedom, food, and fuel. In France, Belgium, Brazil, Chile, Italy, Morocco, and Portugal, young people are leading the protests, while in India, the BJP government is facing criticism for deleting 14% of the adult population's names from electoral rolls.

Each protest is fueled by the belief that people can only be truly free if they have access to food, education, and protection of their environment. The BJP's decision to delete names from the electoral rolls without proper due process has sparked outrage, as the Election Commission of India has admitted to the mistake. The Supreme Court has challenged the deletion process, ordering re-enrollment camps for the affected voters.

The fight for these rights is not limited to just one issue, as soaring food prices and rising fuel costs are also causing widespread discontent among the populace.
