The letter states that instead of offering “genuine policy alternatives,” the Congress leader has resorted to “unsubstantiated accusations.”

Condemning earlier repeated alleged assaults on institutions such as questioning the valour of the armed forces, the fairness of the judiciary, the letter said that it is the Election Commission this time which is facing “systematic and conspiratorial attacks on its integrity and reputation.”

“The Leader of Opposition, Lok Sabha, has repeatedly attacked the Election Commission, declaring that he has open and shut proof that the Election Commission is involved in vote theft and claimed that he has 100 per cent proof. Using unbelievably uncouth rhetoric, that what he has found is an atom bomb and when it explodes, the EC would have no place to hide,” the open letter stated.
