The spokesperson for United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expressed a strong "hope" that in India, as well as in any country undergoing elections, the political and civil rights of people are "protected", ensuring that everyone can vote in an environment that is free and fair.
The spokesperson for the Secretary-General, Stephane Dujarric, made these remarks on Thursday while responding to a question about the "political unrest" in India ahead of the upcoming national elections, following the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and the freezing of the opposition Congress Party's bank accounts.
