On August 11, 2025, Indian opposition leader Rahul Gandhi and dozens of opposition lawmakers were temporarily detained by police in New Delhi during a protest against a controversial revision of the electoral roll. The protest involved over 300 opposition MPs who marched to the Election Commission, accusing it of colluding with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to manipulate voter lists. The opposition warned that the revision could lead to voter fraud in upcoming elections, particularly in one of India's poorest states where key elections are scheduled for November. During the protest, Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra fainted and was assisted by fellow lawmakers including Rahul Gandhi. The detentions and protests highlight rising tensions and concerns over electoral integrity ahead of the Bihar elections. Opposition leaders including Priyanka Gandhi were also reportedly detained amid the demonstrations.
