The demonstration, organised by the Cockroach Party, aims to draw attention to concerns surrounding the electoral roll revision exercise.
Among those expected to participate in the Kochi march is actor-activist Prakash Raj, alongside other notable figures including Abhijeet Dipke. The organisers have positioned the protest as part of broader efforts to mobilise public opposition to the SIR process.
