As per reports, the INDIA alliance held a large protest rally in Hyderabad on Thursday (08 October), demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The protest, organised under the Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC), was titled “Chalo Lok Bhavan” and began at the Indira Gandhi statue on Necklace Road.
• The rally was led by TPCC president and Member of Legislative Council B. Mahesh Kumar Goud, with Telangana Ministers and INDIA alliance leaders participating. Protesters raised slogans alleging that the Central Government was weakening constitutional institutions and demanded greater independence for the electoral system.
