Thousands of people travelled from different parts of the country to attend a major rally at Ramlila Maidan in New Delhi. The protesters gathered to express their anger over government actions, voter list issues and the lack of political change.
Many participants faced difficulties reaching Delhi. After train services were cancelled, several people travelled long distances by bus or car. Some even walked to attend the rally. One participant made the journey directly from a hospital, showing the determination of protesters to take part in the event.
At the rally, people raised concerns about being removed from voter lists and what they described as “vote theft.” They also expressed frustration over problems in education, healthcare and other public services. Many participants said they wanted political leaders to take action and bring meaningful changes.
Tejender, one of the protesters, said he attended the rally because he wanted a better future for his children. He expressed anger over the problems facing ordinary people and said the country needed improvements in education and healthcare.
Abdul Rafiq, who travelled from Telangana, shared similar concerns. He claimed that around 15,000 people had planned to attend the rally but faced restrictions on train travel. As a result, many were forced to book buses to reach Delhi. Despite the difficulties, he hoped the protest would bring positive changes.
Zubair, a participant from Maharashtra, said his family had faced difficulties getting their names restored to the voter lists. He explained that attending the rally was an attempt to achieve what his efforts in his home state had not been able to accomplish.
For Ram Kumar, who was visiting Delhi for the first time, the rally was both a political event and an opportunity to experience the city’s culture. Anil Shukla, a Congress official from Uttar Pradesh, believed the gathering could help strengthen the Congress party’s position in the state.
Another participant, Azka, attended the rally while recovering from typhoid. Despite her mother’s concerns about her health, she decided to support those protesting against government actions.
Congress leader K.C. Venugopal alleged that authorities had tried to prevent supporters from reaching Delhi. However, he claimed that thousands of people managed to overcome the obstacles and attend the rally.
The gathering highlighted the frustration and concerns of people who travelled from different states to make their voices heard. For many participants, the rally was an opportunity to demand change, raise questions about voter rights and call for greater attention to public issues.
