Rahul Gandhi Slams Centre & RSS After Mega Supreme Court March
Hours after leading the opposition's high-stakes march toward the Supreme Court in New Delhi, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi released a hard-hitting video message on Instagram on Monday evening, thanking millions of demonstrators and reaffirming that the people of India will not bow to institutional intimidation. The mass mobilization, organized by the unified INDIA alliance against alleged electoral roll manipulation and the Election Commission of India's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise, brought central Delhi to a standstill earlier in the day. Addressing alliance leaders, party workers, and citizens who expressed solidarity nationwide, Gandhi framed the demonstration as a pivotal turning point, declaring that the collective public movement sent an unmistakable message to the corridors of power that citizens cannot be silenced, threatened, or bullied by state machinery.
Calling Out the RSS: Direct Challenge to Right-Wing Outfits Over Street Aggression
Taking direct aim at the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) in his evening address, the Congress leader questioned the organization's courage, alleging that its cadres avoid public accountability when confronted by a united citizenry. Referencing recent confrontations where young protesters and student activists were reportedly targeted and manhandled during ongoing demonstrations, Gandhi challenged the outfit’s members to face the peaceful, democratic movement openly rather than orchestrating pressure from the shadows. He asserted that the organization's influence is propped up entirely by central executive power rather than popular moral standing, remarking that coercive tactics and force will fail to deter ordinary citizens demanding institutional fairness.
A Unified Resistance: Defending the Constitution Against Systematic Voter Deletions
Emphasizing total cohesion within the opposition ranks, Gandhi commended the disciplined coordination displayed across the various constituent parties of the INDIA bloc. Rejecting notions of fragmented agitation, he underscored that the day's march proved there are no parallel or isolated protests, but rather a singular, synchronized movement determined to protect democratic values and constitutional rights. Reaffirming the alliance’s resolve following their legal approach to the apex court seeking an immediate interim stay on the voter revision process, Gandhi reiterated that the opposition will not back down in its fight against institutional degradation, vowing to relentlessly challenge administrative arbitrariness and defend the democratic franchise of every eligible Indian voter.
