Rahul Gandhi's Battle Cry: The Alleged Vote Theft Crisis

In an escalating political drama, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has launched a fierce attack against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, accusing him of safeguarding those accused of deleting votes to undermine democracy.

During a press conference, Gandhi presented data from Karnataka's Aland constituency, alleging systematic attempts to delete and manipulate votes of Congress supporters.

While the Election Commission countered Gandhi's claims, terming them as unsubstantiated and incorrect, political tensions have mounted with leaders from BJP also responding robustly.
