Indian Opposition Demands Resignation of Election Chief in New Delhi

Indian opposition parties protested on Tuesday, October 6, in New Delhi demanding the resignation of the country’s election commission chief. This mobilization follows a contested revision of the electoral rolls, which has sparked strong criticism.

The protest took place in the heart of the capital, where hundreds of police officers were deployed to oversee the gathering. This action is the latest in a series of nearly daily protests that began last week, involving student groups, opposition parties, and the youth movement called “Cockroach.”
