Raihan Vadra Alleges Removal of Protest Photos from Delhi Exhibition at Bikaner HousePreviousNext

Raihan Vadra, son of Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, alleged that the Rajasthan government-run Bikaner House in Delhi forced him to remove over 70 photographs documenting recent youth protests from his exhibition 'No Idea Is Final' hours before its opening. Vadra and his mother criticized the move as censorship, especially objections to images featuring the Indian flag. Bikaner House cited the political nature and timing as reasons. Vadra plans to find another venue to display the full collection. Authorities have not publicly responded.
