INDIA Bloc Leaders March to Supreme Court Over Electoral Roll Revision

#national #brief

Senior INDIA bloc leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, marched to the Supreme Court on Monday to file a joint petition against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. The opposition alleges large-scale voter deletions and irregularities, terming the exercise as "vote chori."

Protesters gathered in central Delhi, moving through barricades to reach the court. The petition names the Election Commission of India and top election officials as parties. Opposition leaders are demanding the resignation of CEC Gyanesh Kumar, a halt to the current roll revision, and a return to paper ballots after a request for a meeting with the Chief Justice was declined.

Editor's note: Misses specific details like the named Election Commissioners and exact court claims, while adding a broad summary.
