Thousands were expected to join a mega march in New Delhi on Sunday by India's opposition over a controversial revision of electoral rolls, and police surrounded the rally site with batons and shields. India's main opposition parties and the youth-led Cockroach Janta Party are demanding the resignation of the country's election chief, whom critics say the voter list changes favour Prime Minister Narendra Modi's party. Deutsche Welle reported the march aimed at the changes to voter lists, while France 24 reported the heightened security presence. Neither outlet reported an official response from the government or the Election Commission. Voter roll revisions have become a contested issue ahead of India's 2026 elections.
