Opposition lawmakers are protesting against a top election official. They want him to step down due to allegations of electoral irregularities. A meeting of opposition leaders led to a decision to escalate their campaign.

Lawmakers then made their way to a protest site, but some were stopped by police. Women leaders, including a prominent Congress member, were among those who lay down on the road after being blocked. Further details about the protest and the allegations against the election official are available from the source.

The opposition's agitation is ongoing, with no end in sight.
