The BJP has criticised the INDIA bloc's rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan, calling it a "super flop". The party claimed that around 40% of the venue was empty during Rahul Gandhi's speech on Sunday. BJP MP Sambit Patra said 5,000 to 7,000 chairs were vacant at the event. The BJP also questioned Congress's earlier claim that 10 lakh people would attend. The rally was organised to protest alleged electoral irregularities and demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Several opposition leaders, including Mamata Banerjee and Akhilesh Yadav, attended the event.
