Youth Congress members in Ajmer ignited a protest over an alleged Rs 200-crore fraud within the Smart City project, targeting the deteriorating civic conditions they attribute to administrative negligence.

Under the leadership of district president Mohit Malhotra, the demonstrators marched to the Ajmer district collectorate, echoing chants against the state government and highlighting issues such as damaged roads, open drains, and Anasagar Lake's condition as signs of failure.
