NSUI stages protest march against Election Commission

The National Students’ Union of India (NSUI) on Tuesday staged a large protest march to the Election Commission office, accusing the poll body of aiding the ruling BJP in “vote chori” (vote theft) and undermining democracy.

Led by NSUI national president Varun Choudhary, hundreds of students took part in the march, which was met with heavy police deployment. Several workers were detained as they attempted to reach the Commission’s headquarters.

Choudhary launched an attack on the Election Commissioner, declaring, “We have booked an appointment for an eye test for the Commissioner so that he can see the truth. The EC is helping the BJP in vote chori and its full form is now ‘Elections Compromised.’”
