In a post released on the social media platform &#8216;X&#8217; on Wednesday, he claimed that every sixth BJP MP in the current Lok Sabha has won through &#8216;vote theft&#8217;. Rahul Gandhi questioned the BJP&#8217;s winning streak, saying that if elections in the country were conducted in a completely fair and free manner, the ruling party would not be able to cross even the figure of 140 seats.<\/p>\n<p>Using BJP terminology, Rahul Gandhi targeted the MPs whose election he has cast doubt on. He questioned whether these representatives, who manipulate the democratic process to reach the House, should not be called &#8220;infiltrators.&#8221; Furthermore, he sharply criticized the Haryana government, calling it an &#8220;infiltrator government.&#8221; According to him, the BJP is now stealing not just seats but entire governments by hijacking public opinion.<\/p>\n<p>The Congress leader also targeted the country&#8217;s key electoral institutions within his allegations. He alleged that the entire process, from voter list preparation to voting, is being systematically manipulated. According to Rahul Gandhi, the institutions that should act as impartial umpires are currently being operated by the &#8220;remote control&#8221; of those in power. He described the BJP&#8217;s electoral strategy as part of a broader conspiracy to undermine democracy.<\/p>\n<p>Referring to the results of the recently concluded assembly elections, Rahul Gandhi described the BJP&#8217;s success in West Bengal and Assam as &#8220;theft of the mandate.&#8221; He specifically defended the Trinamool Congress (TMC), saying that instead of celebrating the opposition&#8217;s defeat, everyone should unite to protect democratic values. According to him, this fight is no longer about any one political party, but about keeping India&#8217;s democratic structure intact. It is noteworthy that the BJP won a historic majority in these elections, ending the TMC&#8217;s long rule in Bengal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Delhi: Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha and senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has launched a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party over electoral integrity.
