Rahul Slams EC Bias, Accuses BJP of Poll Rigging
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi launched a scathing attack on the Election Commission of India on Friday, July 11, 2025, accusing it of acting as a BJP appendage. He levelled serious allegations of electoral manipulation in Maharashtra and Bihar.
Gandhi claimed widespread tampering of voter lists had taken place, impacting the fairness of recent elections in these states. He demanded a thorough, independent investigation into these claims.
His critique extended beyond the EC. He also targeted the BJP’s handling of tribal land rights and economic policies in Odisha, alleging detrimental impact on the state’s Adivasi population.
The Congress leader’s sharp remarks come at a crucial juncture, ahead of several key state elections. His allegations are likely to fuel further political debate and raise serious questions about the integrity of the electoral process in India. The EC’s response will be keenly awaited.
