In a fierce critique at a recent legal conclave, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi lashed out at India's Election Commission, alleging that the country's electoral system is 'already dead' and describing the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha election as 'rigged'.

Gandhi shared data from Karnataka, stating that 1.5 lakh fake votes were identified, which could potentially impact the slim majority held by the current Prime Minister. He promised to demonstrate how rigging occurred without any doubt.

Stressings on his long-held suspicions about electoral irregularities since 2014, Gandhi argued that the system protecting the Constitution has been compromised. He assured that the Congress will fully unveil evidence to substantiate these claims.
