Rahul Gandhi Challenges Election Commission's Voter Roll Revision Ahead of Supreme Court Hearing
Ahead of the Supreme Court hearing on the Election Commission's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, Rahul Gandhi invoked Lord Shiva by posting 'Satyam Shivam Sundaram' on social media.

Gandhi's campaign includes protests and a planned rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan.
