A political rally organized by Gandhi has drawn attention due to the presence of supporters who have been referred to as 'cockroaches.' This gathering is part of a broader protest movement targeting the chief of the election commission.
The term 'cockroaches' appears to be a specific label used within this context to describe a segment of the crowd or a group backing the rally. Their participation highlights the intensity of the dissent being voiced against the election chief.
