She urged students, youth, women, workers and civil society to join, warning “When the vote is under threat, silence is not an option.” The protest also gained backing from Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who called it a collective effort to stop electoral malpractice. The rally is being held amid heightened opposition activities, including a symbolic CEC impeachment plan. Banerjee's remarks questioned EVM integrity, voter rolls and the counting process, framing the fight as protecting every Indian's right to vote.
