Protester says Gyanesh Kumar should be jailed: What election-law protections, voter-roll disputes and protest detentions actually show

A September 2026 protest clip accuses Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar of escaping accountability while critics face action. India's 2023 law does protect commissioners over official acts, but allegations of vote theft are not proven by the speech.

Denied Permission to Protest at Jantar Mantar: How Far Can Delhi Police Restrict Peaceful Dissent?

A 9 October reel asks how Indians can exercise their right to protest when permission is refused even at designated venues.

Mahadevapura voter-roll anomalies: What Rahul Gandhi’s 1,00,250 ‘vote chori’ allegation establishes — and what remains unproved

Rahul Gandhi’s August 2025 allegation of 1,00,250 suspect voter entries in Mahadevapura prompted a real ground check of 80 names at one tiny address. The findings expose voter-roll maintenance failures, but neither prove 1,00,250 fraudulent votes nor establish BJP–Election Commission collusion.
