Rajnath dares Rahul to detonate 'atom bomb of evidence' against EC

Rahul had claimed that his party has an ‘atom bomb' of evidence to prove “vote chori” by the EC for the BJP, remarks that evoked a sharp response from the poll panel

- 

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh Saturday dared Rahul Gandhi to detonate at once the “atom bomb of evidence of vote theft” which he claimed to have against the Election Commission even as the Congress leader said release of data collected by the party in Karnataka will send a ‘shockwave’ through the electoral system.

Gandhi repeated his claim made Friday that the data to be released soon will be literally like an ‘atom bomb’ and escalated his offensive against the EC, alleging that the polling system in the country is “already dead” and the 2024 Lok Sabha election was “rigged”.

“In the coming few days, we are going to prove to you without any doubt how a Lok Sabha election can be rigged, and it was rigged,” he claimed at an event in Delhi. A protest by Gandhi has been planned in Bangalore August 5 against the alleged incidents of “vote theft”.
