At a large INDIA bloc rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav accused the BJP of electoral manipulation, including wrongful deletion of voter names in Uttar Pradesh. He predicted the BJP's defeat and ouster in the 2027 Assembly elections, criticizing its governance and alleging weakening of democracy with Election Commission support. The BJP responded with plans for padyatras and youth meetings to counter opposition claims. The rally symbolized mounting political tensions ahead of the upcoming Uttar Pradesh polls.
