Delhi Shuts Metro Stations and Seals Central Roads Ahead of Anti-Election Chief Protests in India
- On Tuesday, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde condemned the INDIA bloc's Monday march to the Supreme Court, calling the petition submission an "insult to India's highest judiciary" and demanding an apology to the nation's 1.4 billion people.
- Labeling the march a "black day," Shinde alleged the Opposition's single-point agenda is to spread anarchy and pressurize the judiciary. He claimed the event was unprecedented in Indian history.
- Congress leader Rahul Gandhi described recent protests as "tandav," prompting Shinde to claim comparing the march to "Shiv ki Baraat" showed "clear disrespect for Lord Shankar." Shinde remarked if Lord Shankar opens his third eye, the alliance will be destroyed.
- Invoking Abraham Lincoln's "Rule or ruin" concept, Shinde accused the Opposition of attempting to destroy the country out of electoral frustration. He further alleged that foreign powers are trying to destabilize India.
- Criticizing the Opposition for doubting EVMs and the Election Commission, Shinde pointed to double standards regarding recent regional victories and accused leaders of undermining the Constitution and weakening democracy.
