Even though the call for this protest may have originated from the 'Cockroach Janata Party,' the call itself belongs to the country's youth—to Gen Z. Gen Z understands that the only way to change their circumstances and the system is through the right to vote. The current system is such that you might go to vote only to discover your name has been removed—deleted—from the voter list. If those in power have created such a system, where can the youth turn? How will their situation improve? How will we address the massive unemployment crisis?... If the right to vote is taken away, nothing will change; the country will continue on its current path—or perhaps get even worse. That is why the youth are coming out on October 10th for a massive protest. We will not back down until CEC Gyanesh Kumar resigns..."— ANI (@ANI) October 5, 2026https://platform.x.com/widgets.jsOct 6, 2026 08:46 AM ISTINDIA bloc leaders to meet President Murmu over SIR today© IE Online Media Services Pvt LtdTags:breaking news
