INDIA bloc leaders on Tuesday stepped up their protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Rahul Gandhi invited Opposition MPs, civil society members and student groups for a meeting at his Delhi residence. The meeting followed a joint press conference by Opposition leaders. On Monday, several leaders, including Mamata Banerjee and Akhilesh Yadav, joined a ‘March for Democracy’ in Delhi. They later submitted a petition to the Supreme Court, alleging poll irregularities. The petition named the Election Commission and its senior officials as respondents.
