New Delhi, Aug 9 (UNI) The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) today launched a scathing attack on Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi for his statements against the Election Commission, stating that he is weakening democracy with his immature remarks.
The BJP also dared the Congress leader to file a complaint in the court about his claims of ‘vote theft’ by the EC.
At a press conference here, BJP National Spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia targeted Gandhi, saying that for over a decade, the Congress leader’s image in Indian politics has been that of an individual who is chaotic and attempts to demean constitutional institutions without evidence.
Bhatia added that the public has now accepted Gandhi as an immature, irresponsible leader who makes statements that weaken India’s democracy.
He said, “Rahul Gandhi organized a press conference and made baseless allegations against a constitutional institution without any facts. Therefore, it would not be wrong to say that Rahul, once called a chaos agent, has now become an agent of destruction.”
The BJP leader also questioned who gave the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha the authority to openly threaten constitutional institutions like the EC, and remarked that his “double standards” is exposed as when Congress wins in states like Himachal Pradesh or Telangana, they have no complaint with the EC and when it loses, he (Gandhi) alleges that the ECI is compromised.
