This joint submission to the UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances documents a systemic pattern of enforced disappearances, arbitrary detentions, and extrajudicial killings of Adivasi Indigenous Peoples in Bastar, Chhattisgarh, India. It details how militarisation, corporate mining interests, and state policies erode legal protections, target community leaders, and suppress resistance to land acquisition. Through case studies — from the disappearance of protest leaders to the killing of vulnerable civilians — the report calls for urgent international intervention, accountability, and the protection of Indigenous rights to land, safety, and justice.
