A protest titled ‘Oorooru Jantar Mantar’ was held in Udupi against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.

The protesters demanded the cancellation of the SIR process and called for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. All India Congress Committee spokesperson Bhavya Narasimhamurthy criticised the BJP-led central government over its promises on farmers’ income and employment, while alleging that the Election Commission was being used for political purposes. Former minister Vinay Kumar Sorake expressed concern that the revision process could affect the voting rights of lakhs of citizens. He also demanded that the SIR process be withdrawn and the Chief Election Commissioner resign. Several representatives and hundreds of activists from different organisations participated in the protest.
