India Election Chief Resignation Demanded in Delhi March
Opposition parties and student groups in New Delhi have marched to the Supreme Court demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar resign following the removal of 130 million voters.
Hundreds of demonstrators and opposition leaders marched toward India's Supreme Court demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.
Critics allege the deletion of over 130 million voters disproportionately targets minority communities to benefit the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party.
The Election Commission denied bias, stating removed voters can re-enrol, while government ministers accused the opposition of creating street disorder.
Authorities locked down central Delhi, shutting six metro stations for 10 hours and deploying anti-riot personnel and water cannons.
