Congress targets 10 lakh people for November 1 rally against 'vote theft' in Delhi: Alka Lamba

Shimla (Himachal Pradesh): The Congress has set a target of mobilising 10 lakh citizens and voters from across the country for its November 1 mega rally at Ramlila Maidan in Delhi against alleged "vote theft" and the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, All India Mahila Congress president Alka Lamba said on Monday.

Addressing a press conference in Shimla, Lamba targeted the Election Commission and the Centre, demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, action against him and the cancellation of his decisions. She also demanded a halt to the SIR exercise and a return to ballot papers instead of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs).
