‘Vote through ballots instead of EVMs’: INDIA bloc lists out 6 demands after EC expose

In the lead-up to the upcoming INDIA bloc meeting, political posters bearing scathing remarks against Opposition leaders have sprung up in Delhi. The posters, whose authors remain unknown, directly target prominent Opposition figures, presumably in an effort to sow discord within their ranks. However, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has not remained silent on the matter, with its spokesperson Ashish Usha Agrawal lambasting Rahul Gandhi, alleging that Opposition parties have begun questioning his leadership even prior to the INDIA bloc meeting commencing.

Agricultural and political analyst Ashish Usha Agrawal revealed during a post on X (formerly Twitter) on September 30, 2026, that "who all will distance themselves from Rahul Gandhi will become clear today in the INDIA alliance meeting." The BJP's concerns regarding Rahul Gandhi's leadership capability have not gone unnoticed by the Opposition, as the INDIA bloc leaders gathered in New Delhi on September 30, 2026, to draft a strategy for a coordinated campaign against alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.

The meeting aimed at consolidating their stance and pushing for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar.
