'Not the India we want': Rahul lashes out at PM Modi, Shah over Delhi protest crackdown
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Bansuri Swaraj criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal, alleging they are engaging in a "competition of anarchy" amid a protest against the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC). Swaraj stated at a press conference that both parties failed to win voter trust and were seeking excuses for their electoral defeats.
The protest, led by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), saw heavy police deployment and the arrest of opposition leaders in Delhi. Rahul Gandhi announced that Congress and the INDIA bloc would protest on October 12, accusing the government of suppressing young people's voices. Kejriwal also accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of using excessive force against demonstrators, comparing Modi to Hitler.
The Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee filed a complaint against Kejriwal and AAP leaders for disrupting Gurudwara Bangla Sahib and circulating false information about the protests.
