India’s “Cockroach” Movement to Begin October 2 if Election Chief Does Not Resign by Saturday

India’s opposition has announced a protest movement called “cockroach,” beginning October 2 if the country’s election chief does not resign by Saturday. The campaign appears aimed at increasing pressure over allegations concerning electoral oversight and political accountability. Organizers say the movement will use demonstrations and symbolic messaging to draw attention to their demands. Government officials and supporters of the election authority may challenge the accusations, while the dispute could deepen tensions ahead of elections and affect public confidence in the process.
