New Delhi : Rahul Gandhi on Saturday claimed that the Maharashtra assembly election held last year had been “rigged” and alleged that the same would be repeated in the upcoming Bihar assembly polls. The leader of opposition in Lok Sabha, shared his own article published in a newspaper and said, “How to steal an election?
Gandhi explained “Step 1: Rig the panel for appointing the Election Commission, Step 2: Add fake voters to the roll, Step 3: Inflate voter turnout, Step 4: Target the bogus voting exactly where BJP needs to win, Step 5: Hide the evidence.” Gandhi said It’s not hard to see why the BJP was so desperate in Maharashtra.
He claimed, “The match-fixing of Maharashtra will come to Bihar next, and then anywhere the BJP is losing. Match-fixed elections are a poison for any democracy.” The 2024 Maharashtra assembly polls witnessed the decisive victory of the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance with 235 seats, while the Congress-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) suffered a major setback.
The Election Commission of India (ECI) had earlier responded to allegations of a rigged election concerned with voter turnout data. They had also clarified misconceptions regarding the deletion of certain voters from the list. Rahul Gandhi is back to his disgraceful antics of demonizing the country’s institutions said the BJP’s Tuhin Sinha in response to the allegations.
