INDIA Bloc's Unyielding Protest Against Voter Roll Revision

Members of the INDIA bloc, including prominent leaders like Sonia Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav, continue their protest for the eighth consecutive day at the Parliament House complex. The protest targets the Election Commission's Special Intensive Revision of the electoral rolls in Bihar, which the opposition claims is detrimental to democratic processes.

Amidst banners declaring 'SIR- Loktantra Pe Vaar', MPs from various parties such as Congress, DMK, TMC, and the Samajwadi Party assembled to demand a rollback of the voter roll revision. They argue that the exercise aims to disenfranchise voters ahead of forthcoming Assembly elections.

Holding placards that read 'Stop SIR', the protesting MPs allege a collusion between the Election Commission and the government. They have been vocal in both Houses of Parliament, pushing for a discussion on the contentious issue to safeguard electoral integrity in Bihar.
