New Delhi, Sep 18: Congress MP and Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, is set to hold a special press briefing at the Indira Bhawan Auditorium in the national capital on Thursday morning, where he is expected to make fresh revelations on alleged “vote chori” in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The press conference is scheduled for 10 am.
In August, Gandhi had alleged large-scale electoral discrepancies and cited Mahadevpura, an assembly segment under the Bengaluru Central Lok Sabha constituency, as an example. At that time, he described his first set of revelations as an “atom bomb” against the ruling BJP and promised even more damning disclosures.
Taking his rhetoric a step further, Gandhi has now dubbed his latest revelations a “hydrogen bomb.” Addressing supporters earlier, he said: “I want to tell the BJP people—have you heard of anything bigger than an atom bomb? It is a hydrogen bomb. Be ready, because soon people are going to find out the reality of vote chori.”
The Congress leader further claimed that the upcoming expose would be so significant that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would not be able to “show his face to the country.”
With the Opposition sharpening its attacks over electoral integrity and transparency, today’s press briefing is expected to add fresh fuel to the ongoing political battle between the Congress and BJP.
