Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Thursday appealed to those “who want to save democracy” to join the ‘Chalo Dilli’ march at Ramlila Maidan on Sunday, November 1.
The opposition
INDIA bloc is set to hold a rally at Delhi’s Ramlila Maidan to push for the rollback of the controversial Special Intensive Revision (SIR) and the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar.
In a video message posted on X, Gandhi said the Ramlila Maidan march intends to “save democracy, stop vote theft, and protect the Constitution“.
“Namaskar! The Chalo Dilli Ramlila March is a march to save democracy, stop vote theft, and protect the Constitution. This march doesn’t belong to a political party; rather, it is the march for Hindustan’s soul.”
नमस्कार,
चलो दिल्ली रामलीला मार्च, लोकतंत्र को बचाने का, वोट चोरी को रोकने का, संविधान को बचाने का मार्च है।
यह किसी एक राजनीतिक पार्टी का मार्च नहीं – यह हिंदुस्तान की आत्मा का मार्च है।
सब लोग जो नरेंद्र मोदी, अमित शाह, ज्ञानेश कुमार से तंग हैं। सब लोग जो लोकतंत्र को बचाना चाहते हैं, संविधान की रक्षा करना चाहते हैं, आप सब आइए।
एक ही protest है – देश का protest है।
Don’t worry about the police, don’t worry about lathis – the BJP will not have the guts to try any of their antics.
Come march with us – we will walk together to protect the Constitution, to protect the Indian nation.
घबराने की जरूरत नहीं है।
I urge all student groups, regardless of your political affiliation – if you feel that India is under attack, if you feel you are under attack, your expression, your ideas, your way of thinking is under attack, come and join us.
It will be a fantastic march, and it’s a march for the soul of this country.
Looking forward to seeing all of you there.

“GYANU MUST GO! The Cockroach Janta Party extends its support to the INDIA Bloc’s November 1 rally. Nation above all!” Dipke wrote.
The CJP has also been demanding the rollback of the SIR and resignation of CEC Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in the electoral processes.
The outfit was at the forefront of a massive student-led protest in July over irregularities in the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET-UG) 2026. The protest, which started at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar, culminated in the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan as the Union Education Minister.
