New Delhi, October 14, 2026: Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi has reportedly asked INDIA bloc leaders to remain prepared for mobilisation at short notice as the opposition continues its campaign over electoral-roll revisions and concerns related to the Election Commission.
According to media reports, Gandhi made the remarks during a meeting with opposition leaders, student representatives and civil society members at his residence on Tuesday.
The meeting came amid continuing opposition protests over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and demands for accountability from Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.
Opposition parties have raised concerns that the revision process could lead to eligible voters being excluded from electoral rolls. They have called for greater transparency and safeguards in the process.
The Election Commission and the ruling establishment have faced criticism from opposition leaders over these issues, while the allegations remain contested.
According to reports, Gandhi indicated that the opposition’s campaign would continue regardless of the outcome of legal proceedings. He also urged opposition parties to remain prepared to respond quickly if further mobilisation became necessary.
The remarks followed an opposition march in Delhi and legal action concerning the electoral-roll revision process. The INDIA bloc has sought judicial intervention and raised questions about the functioning of the electoral system.
The opposition’s next steps are expected to depend partly on developments in the Supreme Court and the response to its concerns about the electoral-roll revision exercise.
The issue has become a point of political contention between opposition parties and the ruling establishment. Further developments in the legal proceedings and any announcement of future protests are likely to shape the campaign in the coming days.
