Prakash Raj says anti-CEC protests will continue despite crackdown

Actor-activist Prakash Raj said India is a democratic and peace-loving country where citizens have the fundamental right to question authorities and protest. He asserted that demonstrations against the Chief Election Commissioner would continue despite any crackdowns.

Raj invoked Mahatma Gandhi, suggesting that the spirit of non-violent resistance runs deep in Indian democracy. He emphasized that dissent and accountability are core democratic values that must be protected.

The statement comes amid ongoing tensions between civil society groups and the election commission over governance and electoral processes.
