NEW DELHI: More than 1,500 protesters have been arrested across India in the past 10 days in protests over citizenship law, officials said.
Additionally, some 4,000 people have been detained and then released.
At least 19 people have been killed in clashes between police and protesters since parliament passed the law on Dec. 11.
Critics of the law say it discriminates against Muslims and threatens India’s secular ethos because it makes religion criteria for citizenship.
