Thousands of protesters led by India's main opposition Congress party marched in New Delhi on Monday, demanding the resignation of the election chief over a contentious voter roll revision, AFP journalists saw.
The protesters, shouting slogans and waving placards, defied a strict security clampdown in the capital to march towards the Supreme Court and submit their demand that Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar resign.
