Rahul Gandhi: ‘We Will Show India’s GenZ That Narendra Modi Became PM Through Chunav Chori’

New Delhi: Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Friday launched a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Election Commission (EC), alleging large-scale electoral malpractice in Haryana and warning that similar irregularities could occur in upcoming elections in Bihar.

Speaking to the media, Gandhi said, “We have a lot of material, we will continue this process. We will clearly show India’s GenZ and youth that Narendra Modi became the PM through ‘chunav chori’ and BJP indulges in ‘chunav chori’.”

He claimed that evidence presented by his team showed clear proof of electoral fraud during the Haryana polls. Referring to a BJP leader reportedly voting at two different locations, Gandhi remarked, “I gave a presentation that Haryana elections were not elections at all. A ‘wholesale chori’ occurred there. There was no response by the EC to the allegations levelled by me – fake vote, fake photograph.”

The Congress leader also criticized the Election Commission for failing to act on his allegations, stating, “BJP is defending this but not negating what I said. Media is picking up small examples, like a Brazilian woman voted. How was voting done on the photo of a Brazilian national?”

In a direct attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and the Election Commission, Gandhi asserted, “The reality is that Narendra Modi ji, Amit Shah ji and EC are attacking the Constitution together. Constitution says ‘One man, one vote’. Haryana shows that there was no ‘One man, one vote’ there. It was ‘One man, multiple votes’.”

He warned that similar “electoral manipulation” could take place in other states, alleging, “They are going to do the same in Bihar. It happened in MP, Chhattisgarh, Haryana and Gujarat.”
