Sharing a video clip, the BJP leader in a post on X said, "Let that sink in: "It is not my job to save the democratic system of India," says Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi. No one should have any doubt now -- his repeated attempts to invite foreign deep-state intervention before 2024 were part of a premeditated, sinister plot. The lies he spreads are not about winning elections. They are aimed at unravelling India itself, a nation that has rejected him more than 90 times. Rahul Gandhi is dangerous, delusional, and must be discarded.
A day earlier, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi once again raised concerns over alleged "vote theft" and slammed the Election Commission of India for not cooperating with the investigation. He accused the EC of ignoring serious issues related to voter fraud.
"I am going to show the youth, the people, proof that is black and white, absolutely clear that the Chief Election Commissioner of India is protecting people who have destroyed Indian democracy. I will also show you the methods by which votes are added, deleted and show you how it is done," Rahul Gandhi said during a press conference at the Congress headquarters, Indira Bhawan.
"In Aland, Karnataka, 6018 votes, somebody tried to delete these votes. We don't know the total number of votes deleted in 2023 elections, but somebody got caught. It was caught, by most crimes, by a coincidence. What happened was that the Booth Level officer noticed that her uncle's vote has been deleted. When she checked she saw that her neighbour had deleted the vote," he added.
Gandhi also alleged that he is "getting help" from people who are working for the Election Commission of India (ECI) in uncovering alleged vote fraud in the country.
However, the Election Commission firmly rejected all allegations, clarifying that no voter's name can be deleted online by any member of the public.
Meanwhile, BJP leaders launched a scathing attack on Congress MP, with Union Minister Anurag Thakur accusing the Congress of turning the "politics of allegations" into an art form, saying it has become a habit for the opposition to make false claims and later backtrack.
