The Congress is holding a day-long satyagraha across the country today to protest party leader Rahul Gandhi's disqualification from the Lok Sabha. In Delhi, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and party general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra will lead the sankalp satyagraha at Raj Ghat even after their protest request was turned down by the police. The Congress called Rahul Gandhi's disqualification a "conspiracy" to silence the leader, who has been dogged in his attacks on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and has been the de facto head of the main opposition party for nearly a decade.
