INDIA Bloc Escalates Delhi Protests Demanding Election Commission Reforms
The INDIA bloc intensified its nationwide campaign to protect voting rights, holding high-profile demonstrations in New Delhi.
Opposition leaders marched to demand the immediate resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and the scrapping of the controversial Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, which they allege has disenfranchised millions of citizens.
The mobilization follows widespread friction with law enforcement, resulting in temporary detentions of key opposition figures.
The alliance accuses authorities of electoral manipulation, demanding a rollback of procedural changes in voter registration and a return to traditional ballot paper voting.
As political tensions mount, opposition leaders have pledged to sustain pressure through coordinated parliamentary actions, public rallies, and formal appeals to constitutional authorities to safeguard democratic integrity across the country.
