Prajavani

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has spoken publicly about his fight against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, describing the situation as 'Shiva's tandav' — a reference to a destructive cosmic dance. The remarks, reported by Kannada daily Prajavani, come amid the opposition party's escalating campaign against the Election Commission of India over claims of voter roll irregularities.

Prajavani, one of Karnataka's leading Kannada-language newspapers, is seeing a surge in searches and discussion in India. Readers appear to be turning to the long-running daily for regional news coverage, but no specific report or event from the paper has been identified as the trigger. Details of what prompted the spike remain unclear.
