Opposition leaders Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge don Batman masks during Delhi march to Supreme Court

During a high-profile protest in Delhi, Rahul Gandhi and Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge were seen wearing Batman masks, images of which were posted by the National Students' Union of India on X. The march, aimed at the Supreme Court, is linked to the opposition’s demand for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over the Special Intensive Revision exercise. Gandhi, together with ten other leaders from the INDIA bloc, submitted a petition to the Supreme Court contesting the Election Commission’s voter-deletion process.

The protest follows a series of demonstrations led by the Cockroach Janta Party, which has also prompted Delhi Police to remove Jantar Mantar’s status as an authorized protest venue. The event underscores the opposition’s escalating legal and street-level tactics against the election authority.
