The Election Commission is preparing to act upon charges of vote stealing leveled by Rahul Gandhi, which they claim are undermining the integrity of the process. The Commission has aggressively responded to the charges, ordering Rahul Gandhi to file an affidavit, or apologize. They noted that the Election Commission is unbiased and treats all citizens, rich and poor alike, equally, and that the vote counting has been entirely transparent in Bihar.
The Election Commission has also clarified that voter lists will be available at every polling booth, with political parties granted full access to these lists. If any discrepancies are found, political parties will have the opportunity to immediately bring them to the Election Commission’s attention. Given these safeguards, the Election Commission has stated that there is no justification for the allegations of vote theft being leveled against them.
Rahul Gandhi seems to care more about taking aim at the Election Commission instead of the BJP. The Election Commission has stated that they do not accept the validity of his claims because they are underpinned by no proof.
With increasing controversy surrounding this, the Election Commission is seemingly set to proceed against Rahul Gandhi with a legal action for leveling these allegations. With their sweeping mandate, the Commission can proceed with legal action in the coming week. The Commission is also set to publish a list of voters who were dropped from the voter list in Bihar recently. This action has the potential to change the direction of the current political row over allegations of electoral fraud.
