00:00I mean, this kind of behaviour is sadly, truly pessimistic.
00:04If they believe that destroying India's democracy deserves recognition, award of their support,
00:09then our democracy is even more under threat than perhaps all of us would actually imagine.
00:15One year before what Rahul Gandhi said is, now it just comes to truth.
00:20I must say, I think we in the Congress will point out too rightly,
00:24that for over a year now, since the Maharashtra elections,
00:27Rahul Gandhi has been pointing consistently to errors in the procedure and conduct of the elections,
00:35and particularly in the election rules.

01:21Now the revelations which have come out in the Indian Express
01:24and they're out to be taken up by every party,
01:27these are beyond matters.
01:29These are incredibly serious matters.
01:31Let's get started.

01:38We lost all those,
