Summary

India's opposition alliance staged multiple protests in early October 2026 demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls. Protests occurred at various locations including Jantar Mantar in Delhi and Shivaji Park in Mumbai. Opposition leaders including Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, and Mamata Banerjee participated across three days of demonstrations. A delegation met President Droupadi Murmu to press their demands. Chirag Paswan and other opposition figures claimed police detained around 150 protesters and activists during the Jantar Mantar protest on October 3, though Delhi Police and Joint Commissioner of Police Nupur Prasad denied this. Videos posted on social media showed activists being taken away in vans, and dramatic images of police dragging Gandhi into a vehicle circulated widely. Three women journalists filed sexual harassment complaints against police officers during the Jantar Mantar protest, with cases referred to the crime branch. The Election Commission denied meeting opposition MPs at Parliament House Annexe, citing protocol requirements. The DMRC did not confirm involvement in any incidents.
