[India] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. On April 2, 2025, members of the Adivasi Vikas Parishad held a peaceful protest in Udaipur village, Alirajpur district, Madhya Pradesh, demanding closure of local liquor shops. The demonstration was classified as low-severity with no reports of violence or disruption.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. The localized nature of the protest in rural Madhya Pradesh and its focus on liquor licensing suggests minimal immediate impact on regional supply chains.

Watch points

• Monitor for escalation or spread of similar protests across Madhya Pradesh's tribal regions
• Track any broader policy responses from state authorities regarding liquor licensing in tribal areas
