October 10 was another dark day for our democracy. It was impossible to get to Jantar Mantar as Delhi was turned into a war zone. Absolute horror from watching the events unfold.

I made these maps covering the railway and metro closures that were put in place yesterday to stop people from coming to the CJP-led protest at Jantat Mantar at 10am.

Every metro station inside a 45m walking distance to Jantar Mantar was shut to stop people from gathering.

I will keep covering this from a spatial lens as long as I can

Millions of voters in the world's largest democracy have been left out of the electoral roll, or asked to prove they belong on it, through the Special Intensive Revision (SIR).

Back home in Delhi, 55.6% of voters (>8 million voters) on the pre-SIR roll were either left out of the draft roll published on 31 August or sent a notice in the list published on 19 September.

Here are three maps that show the SIR's impact on Delhi's voters at the level of each polling station.

I'll keep mapping this as events unfold, and I post the maps on Instagram at @mapsareinstruments. This is my very first post here so be kind and respectfull in your feedback.

Thanks!
