Opposition INDIA bloc leaders are scheduled to meet President Droupadi Murmu on Friday at 8 pm, seeking intervention in matters involving the Election Commission. Sources cited by multiple outlets say the meeting is planned from Parliament to the President’s office, following ongoing protests by opposition MPs in New Delhi.

The campaign centers on Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and the Election Commission’s “Special Intensive Revision” (SIR) of electoral rolls. The INDIA bloc alleges irregularities connected to voter rolls and has been demanding Kumar’s resignation. One report specifies that a ten-member delegation, including Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi, and Mamata Banerjee of the TMC, is expected to attend.

Other coverage describes the push as continuing despite claims about detentions and FIRs tied to the protests. The Hindu reports that the INDIA bloc says its request for a response from the President’s office has not been acted upon yet, while it states the opposition will continue its campaign while pursuing presidential intervention.
