Under the leadership of LoP Shri Rahul Gandhi, the Indian National Congress has launched the 'Vote Chor Gaddi Chhodd' campaign — a clarion call against the BJP and the Election Commission's shameless theft of people's votes through a systematic and organised attempt towards a nationwide siege of India's democracy.
From Bihar to Karnataka to Maharashtra, the truth of 'Vote Chori' is undeniable:
In Aland, Karnataka, 6018 voters were sought to be deleted through remote applications across the 254 Aland election booths.
In Mahadevapura, Bengaluru, over 1 lakh fake voters were found—with evidence of duplicate EPICs, forged photos, misuse of Form-6 and bulk registrations. In one instance, over 80 people were found to be living in a 10-15 sq. ft house.
Across Bangalore Central and the wider city, lakhs of duplicate entries and cross-constituency registrations were discovered.
In Bihar and several other states, fake addresses, non-existent households and hundreds crammed into a single place were found.
In the face of these shocking revelations, the EC has chosen to evade accountability and turn to complicity in this murder of democracy. Instead of following its constitutional mandate, the EC has become the BJP's enabler.
All this points to a centralised rigging of votes to keep the BJP in power because without 'vote chori', the BJP can't stay in power.
Our demand is clear: those who are looting the people's mandate have no right to stay in power.
To the BJP and its partner in crime, the nation calls you out:
'Vote Chor Gaddi Chhodd!'
