India Conflict Events: Weekly Aggregates of Political Violence

Giving access to weekly counts of political violence, civilian-targeting, and demonstration events in India, aggregated by country-year and country-month. Produced by the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED), the records are updated weekly to reflect ongoing conflict dynamics.

Use Cases

Strengths
