Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra were among opposition MPs detained in New Delhi on Tuesday following a sit-in at the Akashvani Bhawan premises, according to The Hindu and The Indian Express.
The Indian Express reported that INDIA bloc leaders had planned to march to the Election Commission to demand the removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over allegations of electoral-roll manipulation. After Delhi Police prevented the march from proceeding, protesters entered the Akashvani Bhawan complex at about 2 p.m. and staged a sit-in lasting more than eight hours.
Rahul Gandhi and other participants were detained, while Priyanka Gandhi later climbed a gate at the Kingsway Camp police lines in an attempt to let other leaders enter, the newspaper reported. The detained leaders were released after 10 p.m. Police registered a case Wednesday against Rahul Gandhi and other Congress leaders over their entry into Akashvani Bhawan and the protest march, for which authorities said permission had not been obtained.
Images of the protest prompted comparisons online to the climax of the 2006 film *Rang De Basanti*. Nationalist Congress Party member Anish Gawande was among those who drew the parallel.
BJP president Nitin Nabin separately accused Rahul Gandhi of defending “infiltrators” whose names had been removed during a Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls.
