Delhi's Ramlila Maidan became the stage for a major political showdown as INDIA bloc leaders sharpened their attack on Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and the BJP over voter roll revisions and the SIR exercise. While Rahul Gandhi, Mamata Banerjee, Akhilesh Yadav and Mallikarjun Kharge accused the government of undermining democracy, the BJP dismissed the rally as overhyped, questioned turnout claims, defended Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and accused the Opposition of trying to manufacture a political controversy ahead of key elections.
