Rahul accuses BJP of stealing entire Haryana assembly polls

Congress leader says entire Haryana poll was stolen because of ECI’s ‘incompetence or rather complicity;’ poll panel says Congress filed zero objections to state voter rolls; Rahul slammed over remarks on army

- 

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi doubled down on his voter fraud charge on Wednesday and alleged that the vote chori was not limited to isolated constituencies like Aland and Mahadevapura-as flagged earlier-but was happening on a national level, with the sole intention of 'benefitting' the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

He claimed that there was a centralised and systemic approach to destroy the country’s democratic fabric, and both the Election Commission of India (ECI) and the Centre were acting in collusion to steal not just constituencies but the entire state.

Dropping the 'H' files bomb in the detailed press meet, Rahul claimed that the entire Haryana election was stolen because of the poll panel's “incompetence or rather complicity,” over duplicate and fake voters.

Citing the example of Brazilian voters casting' votes in IO constituencies of Haryana, he claimed vote chori of about 25 lakh votes in the state, where the total number of electorates stands at two crore.

He claimed that there were 1.2 lakh entries in Haryana's electoral rolls where many voters shared the same photograph, but the ECI was not using its software to remove them despite being duly empowered to do so.
