Congress Protests, CEC Resignation Demand, BJP Hits Out at Rahul Gandhi

Congress and opposition parties have initiated widespread protests demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Ganesh Kumar, organising a mass mobilisation to march from Barakhamba Road to the Supreme Court. The Bharatiya Janata Party countered the agitation, asserting that the opposition questions EVMs, the Election Commission, and the judiciary whenever electoral outcomes do not favour them, alleging that Rahul Gandhi is attempting to politicise and intimidate constitutional institutions to prop up his political career. Congress workers and leaders assembled across venues, including Himachal Bhavan and Indira Bhavan, preparing to submit a memorandum regarding alleged malpractices in the Special Intensive Revision process. Although the Chief Justice of India declined to meet the leaders, opposition representatives confirmed they respect the decision while continuing their march.
