India’s opposition leader Rahul Gandhi is detained after calling for Prime Minister Narendra Modi to resign, according to multiple reports. In connection with youth-led protests, Gandhi publicly urges Modi to step down, arguing the government has “destroy[ed] the future of India’s youth” and calling for changes, including to India’s education system. Reports say Gandhi makes the resignation demand before staging a sit-in outside the prime minister’s residence. Both outlets describe the detention as occurring after he calls for Modi’s resignation and before or during the proposed protest action. The accounts frame the event as part of broader youth-led demonstrations that seek reforms in areas including education. Neither report provides detailed information on the legal basis for the detention or the duration of custody. The situation reflects heightened political tension surrounding the protest demands and the opposition’s attempt to pressure the prime minister through a high-visibility public action.
