Rahul Gandhi's Cryptic Post Amid Election Commission Roll Revision Controversy
Rahul Gandhi posted a cryptic message on social media about swimming in rough seas, stating it teaches that rough is another kind of calm. This post coincides with a report by The Indian Express revealing that Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi have objected multiple times to decisions related to the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Gandhi has linked these objections to his earlier allegations of electoral irregularities, which he says the report supports.
