Harvard Scholars Warn Against Undermining India's Constitutional InstitutionsPreviousNext

A group of 44 Harvard-affiliated scholars and professionals expressed concern over what they described as a concerted campaign against India's constitutional institutions, including the Election Commission, Supreme Court, Enforcement Directorate, and Parliament. While affirming dissent as a democratic right, they warned against undermining institutional credibility through unsubstantiated allegations. The group also raised concerns about the unauthorized use of Harvard University's name to support political campaigns and emphasized respect for constitutional principles, due process, and public officials.
