Rahul Gandhi May Call Off Sit-In, But There Are Two Conditions: Sources

Congress MP Rahul Gandhi cut through a large crowd of protesters this morning and made his way towards the Election Commission of India's (ECI) building, while behind him a sea of people shouted slogans against Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar to demand his resignation.

Rahul Gandhi, stopped by several layers of police barricades, suddenly climbed on one of them and waved a large national flag. That drew loud slogans of support from leaders and workers of the Opposition bloc INDIA who turned out in large numbers to demand the resignation of the CEC over alleged irregularities in the voter roll cleanup exercise Special Intensive Revision (SIR).
