In a significant meeting held in New Delhi, the I.N.D.I.A. bloc, which consists of 23 opposition parties, chose to temporarily set aside internal conflicts to present a united front against the BJP-RSS. The gathering, the first in over two years, resulted in a commitment to address electoral integrity issues, including a letter to Chief Justice Surya Kant regarding allegations of electoral fraud, termed 'vote loot'. The bloc also demanded the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over the NEET-CBSE controversy, which has drawn criticism for impacting numerous students. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge announced that the coalition would meet every two months, with the next meeting planned for Hyderabad. Furthermore, leaders called for an immediate all-party meeting to discuss pressing economic challenges such as unemployment and rising prices. Despite the positive tone, tensions were evident, particularly with the DMK's absence from the meeting due to recent political disagreements with the Congress party.
