Rahul Gandhi, a prominent leader of the Congress party, has leveled serious accusations against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, claiming that he is shielding those who undermine the democratic process by deleting votes of Congress supporters.
At a press conference at Congress' Indira Bhawan headquarters, Gandhi cited instances from Karnataka's Aland constituency and Maharashtra's Rajura constituency, alleging fraudulent voter deletions and additions, some involving automated software.
He called for immediate transparency from the Election Commission, urging them to cooperate with the ongoing investigation led by Karnataka CID. Gandhi emphasized the critical nature of these revelations for India's youth, promising further disclosures that he predicts will be a 'hydrogen bomb' against Prime Minister Modi's administration.
