Rahul Gandhi Warns Government Could Fall Amid Opposition Protests Over CEC
Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi addressed INDIA bloc MPs, asserting that ongoing protests against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar have unsettled the government, which he described as fearful. Gandhi claimed the issue extends beyond Kumar, calling for the current government's termination and expressing confidence that sustained pressure could lead to its fall. The MPs planned to meet President Droupadi Murmu to demand Kumar's resignation amid concerns over electoral roll revisions. Gandhi also invoked Jawaharlal Nehru's 1947 speech to emphasize the significance of their cause.
