Indian opposition leader Rahul Gandhi was arrested on Monday while leading a demonstration in New Delhi against alleged rigging in the recent general elections.
Gandhi, accompanied by senior Congress Party leaders and supporters, was marching towards the Election Commission office when police detained him, citing violations of public order. The protestors accused the ruling BJP of manipulating results and demanded an independent investigation.
The arrest sparked fresh political tensions, with Congress condemning the move as an attack on democratic rights. Authorities said Gandhi would be released after completing legal formalities.
