Union Minister jabs Parameshwara, compares to Rahul Gandhi
The Business Guardian
|November 26, 2024
Union Consumer Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi on Monday took a dig at Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara, stating that the latter was speaking in a manner similar to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi about electronic voting machines despite his party's win in Karnataka and Jharkhand Assembly elections.
"I had this impression that he is a mature person, but he is also talking like Rahul Gandhi. Mr Parameshwara is treated as one of the mature politicians in Karnataka, but unfortunately, the perception I had of him was wrong. He has only proved it. BJP was in the Centre when they won 135 seats in Karnataka and also won Jharkhand elections, but still, they say such things," Joshi told.
The Union Minister was speaking outside the Parliament building as the first winter session commenced today. Parameshwara had alleged that Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) were hacked "selectively" in the 2024 Maharashtra assembly elections.
