'Please understand': Delhi high court refuses Monday hearing of plea against Jantar Mantar closure
The court agreed to hear the plea on Tuesday, with a petition filed by NSUI, seeking a probe into the alleged assault on the public by anti-social elements.
The opposition alliance INDIA bloc, led by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, has announced a march to the Supreme Court on October 12, 2026, in protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and Special Intensive Revision (SIR). The march, titled "Chalo Delhi - March for Democracy," aims to submit a memorandum to the Chief Justice of India, Surya Kant, over alleged 'vote chori' (vote theft).
However, the CJI has declined to meet Gandhi. The protest comes amid intensifying anti-CEC protests and a police crackdown on protesters, with six metro stations remaining closed.
