INDIA Bloc Holds Rally in Delhi Demanding CEC Resignation Over Electoral Roll Issues

INDIA Bloc Holds Rally in Delhi Demanding CEC Resignation Over Electoral Roll IssuesPreviousNext

On November 1, the INDIA bloc held a large rally and march at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan protesting alleged electoral irregularities linked to the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter rolls. Opposition leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, and Akhilesh Yadav, demanded Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar's resignation, accusing the Election Commission of voter deletions and undermining democracy. Delhi Police deployed around 10,000 personnel for security, permitting the rally but not the march route. The BJP criticized the protest, while opposition parties emphasized protecting voting rights and democracy.
