Union Minister G Kishan Reddy launched a scathing attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday, accusing him of a fundamental lack of understanding regarding India's electoral system and governance. Reddy claimed that Gandhi's recent allegations of vote theft showcase his ignorance about the functioning of the Election Commission, the Supreme Court, and foreign policy matters.

Speaking to ANI, Reddy dismissed Gandhi's statements, asserting that the Congress leader fails to grasp the basics, such as the preparation of voter lists, which involves state government administration rather than central intervention. Reddy condemned Gandhi's remarks as insulting to government employees and senior officials nationwide, questioning Gandhi's faith in the country's systems.

Earlier, Rahul Gandhi criticized the Election Commission for supposedly hindering a Karnataka CID investigation into voter fraud, accusing Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar of shielding 'vote thieves.' However, the Election Commission rebuffed these claims, clarifying that no voter deletions can occur without due process and labeling Gandhi's allegations as baseless and incorrect.
