Rahul Gandhi Targets Election Commission Over 'Vote Theft', Launches Website for Support

New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu): Congress MP Rahul Gandhi has started a new campaign demanding transparency from the Election Commission on the issue of 'vote theft'. He appealed to the people to be a part of this campaign.

Congress MP Rahul Gandhi wrote in a post on social media platform X, "Vote theft is an attack on the basic democratic principle of 'one person, one vote'. A clean voter list is essential for free and fair elections. Our demand from the Election Commission is clear - show transparency and make the digital voter list public, so that the public and political parties can audit it themselves." He further wrote, "You too join us and support this demand. Go to the link (Rahul has shared a link) or give a missed call to 9650003420. This fight is to protect democracy."

Along with his post, Rahul Gandhi also shared a video message, in which he said, "It is important that we expose vote theft. Fully support this campaign. All the necessary information and data is available on our website. Join this movement and work to stop the vote theft that is being done." It is noteworthy that Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi is constantly accusing the Election Commission of vote theft. Talking to the media, he claimed that the Election Commission is getting votes stolen and I am saying this with 100 percent evidence.

However, the Election Commission of India has described the statement given by Rahul Gandhi as misleading, factless and threatening. Meanwhile, the dinner diplomacy of Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge is also in the headlines. If sources are to be believed, Kharge has organized a dinner for the MPs of India Block on Monday. Sources have given this information. This is being seen as an attempt by the opposition alliance to build a front against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter list in Bihar and alleged rigging in the elections.
