Rejected petition Raise the issue of Human Rights violations in India with Prime Minister Modi.

In recent times, India has seen a growing intolerance for the civil liberties and freedom of expression. Many rationalists have been killed and others feel threatened. Near Delhi, a mob lynched an old man over rumours that he had beef in their home. PM Modi kept silent sending wrong signals.
