The Samajwadi Party’s absence from Mallikarjun Kharge’s lunch meeting for INDIA bloc leaders has triggered fresh speculation over coordination among Opposition parties.

The INDIA bloc is intensifying its campaign against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, with opposition MPs planning another major protest in Delhi and seeking a meeting with President Droupadi Murmu.

Congress’s campaign shifts its SIR criticism from political statements to booth-level mobilisation, with the party planning to identify affected voters and assist eligible people with re-enrolment. The use of “vote rakshaks” and household outreach indicates an effort to turn the electoral-roll dispute into a grassroots campaign. The controversy remains politically contested: Congress alleges large-scale voter deletions and demands accountability from the Election Commission, while the poll panel maintains that the SIR process follows the applicable legal and statutory framework. The scale and organisation of the campaign could keep electoral-roll transparency and voter registration at the centre of the Opposition’s political agenda.

Kharge’s call for an Education-to-Employment Roadmap places the transition from education to jobs at the centre of the Congress’s youth-focused political messaging. The proposal, if developed into a detailed policy framework, would need to address education quality, skills, employability and access to employment opportunities. His criticism of the government’s influence on educational institutions and his remarks on the Ram temple donation controversy are political allegations and demands from the Congress. The broader significance of the CWC discussion is the party’s effort to connect education and employment with its national political agenda.

The INDIA bloc has announced a nationwide campaign over concerns related to the Election Commission and electoral processes. The Opposition plans protests, a march to the Election Commission headquarters, and a legal challenge to provisions of the Chief Election Commissioner Act, 2023.

The INDIA bloc has announced a six-point action plan including “Save Democracy” marches from October 2 to 8, an Opposition MPs’ march to the Election Commission on October 6, five major rallies and a November 1 mega rally in Delhi.

The internal crisis in the Bihar Congress has intensified after the party issued show-cause notices to 29 leaders for allegedly participating in a protest against the state leadership in New Delhi. The action comes amid continuing demands from disgruntled leaders for organisational changes and greater accountability.

Uttarakhand politics has intensified after police registered an FIR over an alleged “purification” ceremony at Haldwani’s Ramlila Maidan following Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge’s rally. The BJP and Congress have intensified their political attacks as both parties focus on the Dalit vote ahead of the 2027 Assembly election.

Bengaluru Police have registered a Zero FIR against Uttarakhand BJP members and others over an alleged purification ritual at Haldwani’s Ramlila Ground following a rally addressed by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge. The case has triggered a fresh political controversy over allegations of caste discrimination.

Mallikarjun Kharge has played an important role in shaping the Congress party’s strategy, opposition politics, and approach to governance and public issues.
