In a strategic move, influential INDIA bloc leaders convened at Rahul Gandhi's residence on Thursday to confront electoral challenges. The coalition pledged to combat the alleged 'vote chori model' of electoral manipulation attributed to BJP and Election Commission.
This significant assembly marked the first physical meeting of these leaders since their post-election gathering in June 2024. Attendees included high-profile leaders like Mallikarjun Kharge, Sonia Gandhi, and Sharad Pawar, among others from 25 different parties.
Gandhi's presentation highlighted purported malpractices in the electoral process. A planned protest march from Parliament to the Election Commission headquarters underscores their unified stance against alleged electoral fraud. Discussions also touched on voter disenfranchisement concerns linked to Bihar's SIR and Jammu & Kashmir statehood issues.
