India's crackdown on journalists and alternative media raises concerns about freedom of speech, with the government using the Anti-Terrorism Law (UAPA) to clamp down on the press, resulting in the arrest of 40 journalists and freelance reporters. The raids on journalists linked to the Newsclick news website, including the editor-in-chief and founder, have been condemned as a ruthless crackdown on independent media, with human rights campaigners and journalists expressing alarm.
