The full story

The Gujarat unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party organized protest marches in Ahmedabad and Rajkot as part of its 'Save Democracy, Remove Anarchy Campaign'. Senior leaders, including Union Health and Family Welfare Minister Jagat Prakash Nadda, Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, and Deputy Chief Minister Harsh Sanghavi, participated in the Ahmedabad event. Protesters and party leaders accused the Congress party of undermining the credibility of constitutional institutions, including the Election Commission, by questioning electoral processes and electronic voting machines following election defeats. Speakers defended the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls as a necessary procedure to remove deceased, duplicate, or migrated voters. Leaders also criticized opposition figures over past electoral allegations and appointments made during previous administrations. No official counter-response from the targeted opposition regarding the street demonstrations was detailed in the reports.
