Activists of the Jharkhand Congress and its youth wing on Tuesday (October 6, 2026) scuffled with the police as they tried to break through barricades during a demonstration outside the Chief Electoral Officer's (CEO) office in Ranchi, demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar.

After they failed to enter the premises, the agitators blackened the official name board of the Election Commission.
