Anti-CEC protest LIVE: Delhi police detain IYC members near Parliament Street police station; SFI, DYFI continue protest near Jantar Mantar

New joint platform against SIR formed, nationwide agitation planned for October 23

Organisations opposing the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) formed a joint platform at a meeting held, activist Tara Rao said. “People have been on streets, now we are going to set up our fight with broader presence going forward… we will ensure we are working at all levels, top down to the villages, and prove that SIR is wrong,” she said, criticising the police response to protests since July as “barbaric” and demanding the scrapping of the SIR along with CEC Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation.

Rajan Kshirsagar, a leader of the All India Kisan Sabha, said more than 100 youth, labour and farmers’ organisations that assembled on Wednesday would launch a nationwide agitation on October 23, 2026, demanding the rollback of the SIR, Mr. Kumar’s resignation, and an audit of deleted names. – The Hindu
