Rarely have people turned out in such vast numbers. This is the first time in Delhi that young people and citizens have come together entirely on their own initiative. You have seen this, so I do not wish to elaborate further. Everyone is now prepared to fully expose PM Modi's plan to steal votes" Echoing the united stance of the alliance, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP-SCP) MP Supriya Sule said,"We stand united with full strength as part of the INDIA alliance; our struggle will continue because the Constitution has been undermined and is currently in danger in this country.

Reiterating the alliance's collective resolve, Sule stated, A single individualrepresenting a single governmentis making a grave mistake by attempting to trample upon these rights.
