Indian National Congress electoral roll protest

Overview

The Indian National Congress launched the ‘Save Your Vote, Save Your Nation’ campaign to address allegations of large-scale voter deletions from electoral rolls. The party aims to visit villages across India to identify removed voters and assist with re-registration.

In response to these allegations, the opposition alliance organized a major rally at Ramlila Maidan in New Delhi for November 1. The demonstration seeks the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar following reports of misconduct and irregularities during the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls. Opposition leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, have accused the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party of ‘stealing’ votes, amid reports that over 130 million names may have been removed from draft lists. Various party officials and regional leaders have issued appeals for citizens to join the march to defend the impartiality of the voting process.
