In Jehanabad on Friday, CPI(ML) activists staged a strong protest at Ambedkar Chowk, burning an effigy of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and shouting slogans against the Election Commission. The protestors alleged that millions of names had been removed from the voter lists.

CPI(ML) leader Sanjay Chandravanshi claimed that a large number of voters were removed from the lists during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process. He stated that many genuine and eligible voters were excluded, potentially depriving them of their right to vote. Chandravanshi accused the Election Commission of political bias, asserting that voters' rights have been affected during the Chief Election Commissioner's tenure and that attempts were made to benefit a particular political party.

Demonstrators demanded that the government remove the Chief Election Commissioner from his post and arrest him. Party leaders also raised serious questions about the functioning of the Election Commission. The CPI(ML) further called for the annulment of election results held during the Chief Election Commissioner's tenure and demanded fresh elections based on the old voter lists to ensure no genuine voter is disenfranchised.
