· India · Indian Express, Times of India
AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal has appealed to the public to join a protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Kejriwal stated that he and his family will participate in the mobilisation, which opposes the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls. He accused the ruling party at the Centre of deleting votes on a mass scale and threatening democracy. Authorities and Delhi Police have enforced prohibitory orders under BNSS Section 163 and denied permission for the gathering. The Supreme Court expressed serious concerns over the complete closure of metro station entries implemented by authorities for the protest.
