Political Parties Demand CEC Gyanesh Kumar's Resignation Over Electoral Roll Deletions

Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar is facing calls for his resignation and removal from various political parties and youth organizations across India. The controversy stems from alleged irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, which reportedly led to the deletion of approximately 13 crore voter names. Political parties, including the Indian National Congress, Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Samajwadi Party, and Left parties, have organized nationwide protests and filed a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) in the Supreme Court seeking an investigation and restoration of voter registration processes.
