🇮🇳 Indian Opposition Marches to Supreme Court Over Alleged ‘Vote Theft’

India’s opposition parties, led by the Congress, marched toward the Supreme Court in New Delhi on October 12, demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged electoral irregularities.

The controversy centers on a voter-list revision that reportedly removed around 130 million names. Opposition leaders argue that the process threatens electoral fairness, while related cases are already pending before the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile, Delhi Police has withdrawn Jantar Mantar’s status as a designated protest site, recommending alternative locations for demonstrations.

The dispute is intensifying debate over electoral transparency, democratic accountability, and the right to peaceful protest in India.
