00:00We're seeing this bus filled with MPs now heading towards maybe the Jantar Mantar.
00:04They're all holding up posters of Vote Chori chanting Rahul Gandhi's name.
00:08We also have Rahul Kautam who's been tracking this.
00:10Rahul, what are you picking up? Where are you stationed at?
00:13And where is the bus full of MPs heading towards?
00:20Well, at this point of time, it seems that they are heading towards Jantar Mantar.
00:24And I'll just show you some of the visuals of what really happening on Ground Zero.
00:28So there you can see Priyanka Gandhi Wadra waving towards supporters.
00:33This is second day of ongoing protest led by opposition parties against E.C. Gyanesh Kumar.
00:39There you can see Malik Arjun Kargay as well, who's flashing a playcard or poster that says no Vote Chori,
00:46no Democracy Chori.
00:47Then you have Rahul Gandhi as well sitting just alongside Priyanka Gandhi, I beg your partner, Malik Arjun Kargay.
00:54And then there are other MPs as well of Congress party, of opposition parties who are there.
01:01Reduka Chaudhary is there.
01:03Amrinder Raja Amrindar Singh's wedding is there.
01:05So it seems that it's day two of the ongoing protest and it seems that the opposition leaders have again
01:12hit the streets.
01:13Rahul Gandhi was speaking with media, said that we're going to Jantar Mantar, you know, to mark our protest against
01:20C.A.C. Gyanesh Kumar.
01:21And obviously we all know that how the opposition is upping the ante against C.A.C.
01:26They've been, you know, they've been trying to increase the temperature against C.A.C., seeking his resignation, seeking immediate
01:33suspension of ongoing exercise of S.A.C.
01:36And that's why.
01:37And yesterday we saw, you know, a whole lot of opposition India bloc coming together while Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka
01:44Gandhi, they were leading the march against, you know, C.A.C.
01:48So clearly it seems that the opposition is completely charged.
01:52They are just not impressed or not convinced with the clarification which has been coming in from the chief election
01:58commissioner.
01:59They are saying that it is happening at the behest of the BJP, this alleged vote story that is happening.
02:05And it seems that the election commission is also compromised.
02:09And, you know, and they're also sort of made the issue of C.A.C., the issue of vote story
02:16a rallying point for all opposition parties.
02:18And that's why you see a completely united opposition yesterday coming together on the streets of the national capital.
02:25And today also, remember, you know, earlier there was this message that Malika Arjun Kargai is going to host all
02:32the India bloc MPs for lunch.
02:34But we had a sense that, given the fact that yesterday only they had a very boisterous protest in the
02:40national capital.
02:41So there was a sense that they might again hit the streets as they are hitting right now.
02:45I'll just show you some live visuals there.
02:48There are three buses which are completely, you know, filled or absolutely full with Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha MPs from
02:56various political outfits.
02:58I can see Derek O'Brien is there.
03:01Then there are, you know, leaders from other political parties as well, from CPI, CPM.
03:06And the idea is to send a strong message that the opposition is united.
03:10I'll just ask my camera person to just show you that what's really happening.
03:13These are the cavalcade, these are the cars of the cavalcade of Rahul Gandhi and Pringha Gandhi who are following
03:18the same bus on which Rahul Gandhi and Pringha Gandhi are traveling at this point of time.
03:25There are multiple buses that have been placed in here by Delhi police as well to detain these MPs and
03:31these leaders.
03:32If at all, they're going to stage a protest anywhere in the national capital given the fact that their probability
03:41orders have already in place in the national capital.
03:44So assembling is not really allowed in this part of Delhi.
03:48And that's why, as we saw yesterday, Rahul Gandhi and Pringha Gandhi getting detained.
03:54It seems that today also we're going to see some similar scenes given the fact that, again, the opposition is
04:00out on the streets.
04:01Not just Congress Party, but also Congress is getting support from many other political outfits that are part of India
04:08Bloc.
04:09In a way, one can say that opposition is on warpath against Chief Election Commissioner and it seems that they're
04:15not going to relent until their three demands are met.
04:18A. Mr. Gyanesh Kumar should be removed from his post.
04:21B. Immediate suspension of ongoing SIR exercise.
04:24And three, the election should be conducted via ballot papers.
04:27Rahul keep tracking that for us as we're looking at the MPs are now going towards Jantan Mantar where they're
04:33likely to stage a protest as well.
04:34And as soon as they do that, the Delhi police is also ready.
04:37They have their buses with them and they are going to detain the protesters as well.
04:40Let me go back to Shriya, who's also there.
04:42Shriya, what is it that you're picking up from there?
04:44We're seeing that all the MPs, any also any details from what would have really happened inside that meeting.
04:49We know they were all there to write and draft a letter to the ECI.
04:53Now, yesterday the ECI said they did not receive any requests from them.
04:56Now, today all these MPs are there.
04:58They said they met there to draft a letter.
05:00And of course, they also discussed that they would do this possible flash protest.
05:03Any details of what would have happened inside that lunch meeting, the result of which we're seeing now happening outside?
05:14You know, Jessica, as I speak, I'll just move out from the background.
05:18Look at this bus.
05:20All of the political leaders of the India bloc in it together.
05:26And they all have their posters ready.
05:28They all have their slogans ready.
05:30They seem to have had a very, very fruitful meeting at Sagar Ratna because there is a sense of unity
05:38amongst all of them being led by the senior leaders,
05:42senior members of the parliament of both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha as we speak.
05:46But at the same time, on the other side, if I can request my camera person to pan out, there
05:51are NSUI members that have also gathered here in high numbers.
05:56They are the ones who have, in fact, already begun sloganeering.
06:00They are the ones who have already launched a protest.
06:02Meanwhile, the MPs can be seen.
06:07I can also spot Mahua Moitra from here who was also attempting to enter Akash Vani Bhavan yesterday where Rahul
06:15Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi were.
06:18And all of these leaders have come in unison.
06:21They have a smile on their faces.
06:23Seems like they've had a very successful meeting.
06:26And they're currently on their way to another location.
06:30They've passed Jantar Mantar.
06:32But if I can show you the security deployment at Jantar Mantar, just the number of police personnel that's coming
06:39out from Jantar Mantar itself at this given point.
06:43And in fact, just once these police personnel pass, let me just take you towards Jantar Mantar, the protest site.
06:49You will be able to see how the RAF members have, in fact, come out to accumulate there.
06:56So they are all prepared that the politicians will be coming out to protest here itself.
07:00Just look at the numbers.
07:01In my background, this is the number of RAF officials, of police personnel, of CRP officials who have all gathered
07:09here in complete preparation.
07:12That if there is any untoward incident that even they get signs of, then they will jump to action.
07:21But for now, we see the buses.
07:23All of the three buses that we were discussing about, that has crossed this entire area of Jantar Mantar.
07:28So we are still anticipating where exactly will they be headed towards in the bus.
07:35Whether then they would be walking back, the NSUI members, along with, led by the political leaders itself, the members
07:41of the parliament on that bus.
07:42Whether they will walk up to this very area in protest.
07:47All of that, it's a highly tense and a highly charged environment that we see here at the junction Jantar
07:56Mantar and Janpat.
07:57Both of it, they have moved away from Jantar Mantar now, moving towards Jantar Mantar.
08:02And we are tracking them at this given point.
