On Wednesday, Congress supporters staged a protest in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Chintu Choukse, the city Congress president, headed a group of workers who gathered at Harsiddhi Square before marching to the collector's office. Upon arriving, they presented a memorandum to the president, urging the CEC to either resign or leave his position.
The Congress leaders questioned the functioning of the Election Commission and the revision of electoral rolls. Choukse specifically accused the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process of causing a large number of voters to be removed from the electoral rolls. He also claimed that the Election Commission's decision-making process had become centralized, with recent disagreements among officials raising concerns about unilateral decisions made by the Chief Election Commissioner.
The Congress workers expressed their protest aimed at raising awareness about the functioning of the Election Commission and changes in voter lists.
