Navi Mumbai: MNS Launches Signature Campaign In Vashi Demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s Resignation

Navi Mumbai witnessed a signature campaign on Monday outside Vashi railway station, organized by the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS). The protesters demanded the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in the Election Commission of India's functioning. Thousands of citizens, including women and young people, took part in the campaign, which was led by MNS spokesperson Gajanan Kale.

Slogans like "Gyanesh Kumar, resign" and "Gyanesh Kumar, vote chor" were shouted by the demonstrators. They accused the election machinery of undermining democracy and demanded accountability from the Centre and the Chief Election Commissioner. The protest was part of a broader political mobilisation against the Election Commission, following a similar protest in Mumbai on Sunday by leaders of the MNS and Shiv Sena (UBT).

Kale announced that the signature campaign would be expanded to all divisions of Navi Mumbai to intensify the agitation.
