DELHI: Indian opposition leader and senior Congress figure Rahul Gandhi was taken into custody by police on Monday while leading a demonstration against suspected voter fraud. The protest march was headed towards the office of the Election Commission of India (ECI) when authorities intervened and detained Gandhi along with several other party members.
The demonstration was organized to voice concerns over alleged irregularities in the recent elections, which the Congress party claims were neither fair nor transparent. Supporters of the Indian National Congress had gathered in large numbers, demanding accountability and a thorough investigation into the electoral process.
This is a developing situation, with updates expected as more details emerge.
