INDIA Bloc Plans November 1 Delhi Rally Over Alleged Vote Theft Amid Traders' Concerns
The INDIA bloc, led by Congress and allied parties, plans a large rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan on November 1 to protest alleged vote theft and electoral roll irregularities, with an expected turnout of around one million people.

Meanwhile, Delhi traders urge postponement of the rally, citing potential disruption to the peak Diwali business season worth Rs 25,000 crore. The rally aims to highlight concerns over election transparency and demand accountability.
