In a sharp critique aimed at the Election Commission of India, Congress leader and Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi, alongside her brother Rahul Gandhi, accused the body of colluding with powerful interests to disrupt the democratic process by systematically deleting opposition voters. She urged citizens to critically evaluate the situation by watching Rahul Gandhi's press conference.
During a media interaction in Wayanad, Priyanka highlighted the alleged collusion, asserting, "The EC is colluding to destroy the electoral process and challenge democracy in our country." Her concerns find echo in Karnataka, where Minister Ramalinga Reddy accused the commission of acting under the central government's influence, compromising its independence.
Rahul Gandhi, rallying the charge, criticized the EC for hindering the Karnataka CID's voter fraud investigation in Aland, which has been stalled for over two years. He claimed the EC provided incomplete data, obstructing justice, while alleging that a concerted effort targets marginalized communities, attempting to disenfranchise opposition voters.
