‘Vote chor’ graffiti, littered roads, and a muddy ‘catwalk’ at Ramlila Maidan after INDIA bloc rally

Waste-collectors, some of whom participated in the protest, gathered the discarded plastic bottles near the protest site; rain-soaked, waterlogged stretches forced protesters to tread carefully through the venue

‘Vote chor’ graffiti, littered roads, and a muddy ‘catwalk’ at Ramlila Maidan after INDIA bloc rally

Central Delhi's streets bore the marks of protest following the INDIA bloc rally on Sunday evening, with spray-painted slogans like "Vote chor, gaddi chor", "Rollback SIR", and "Illegal PM" scrawled across Minto Road. The aftermath saw littered roads, discarded plastic bottles, torn placards, and other waste strewn along Minto Road and Jawaharlal Nehru Marg.

Waste collectors pounced on the opportunity, gathering empty bottles and recyclable material for resale. A muddy "catwalk" greeted protesters at Ramlila Maidan, as rain had left parts of the ground slippery and muddy. Despite the soggy conditions, thousands of citizens, including IT professionals, hospital patients, and political party representatives, gathered for the rally, determined to fight alleged vote theft and electoral roll irregularities.
