Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday urged Delhi traders to ask Prime Minister Narendra Modi to remove Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, saying protests against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls would end within 30 seconds if his demand was met. His remarks came after the Chamber of Trade and Industry asked the INDIA bloc to postpone its November 1 rally at Ramlila Maidan until after November 10, citing possible business losses during the festive season. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge also renewed demands for Kumar’s resignation, alleging irregularities in electoral rolls. The Election Commission’s response to the latest allegations was not included in the report. (PC: India Today)
