If Cong believes in “vote chori’, it should quit: Bandi Sanjay

The Free Press Journal - Indore

December 16, 2025

Slamming Congress over its 'vote chori' allegations, Union Minister Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Monday said the party should set the precedent by vacating power in Telangana and Karnataka as governments in the two southern states were "formed under the same Election Commission".

In a post on X, he said, "While invoking 'Satya' to defeat Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, Rahul Gandhi built his entire argument on 'Asatya', misleading the nation".

The BJP leader further said that RSS chief Mohan Bhagat spoke of Shakti as energy, in the civilisational language, but Congress leader Rahul Gandhi chose to see it as power.

"Twisting a civilisational reference into political outrage exposes a poor understanding of Bharat's cultural language, and even basic science," he said.

Recalling PM Modi's comments earlier, he said those who try to attack 'shakti' ultimately harm themselves.

Taking a dig at Rahul Gandhi, the Union minister said Hinduism is not learnt from "quick briefings" and shakti that is not the same as 'gaddi' (throne).
