The Bharatiya Janata Party mounted a counterattack against Rahul Gandhi and the Congress over their repeated allegations of vote chori. The BJP labelled the narrative a planned conspiracy aimed at deflecting attention from the opposition party's repeated electoral defeats. Following discussions after a Congress Working Committee meeting, Congress and key opposition parties, including the Trinamool Congress and Samajwadi Party, raised concerns over the Special Intensive Revision process, alleging that voter deletions were being conducted disproportionately across states. The opposition highlighted issues such as demolished homes in Delhi where voter registrations were reportedly excluded. Countering the charges, the BJP pointed out past instances, such as the 2018 claims in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, arguing that the Congress routinely questions the Election Commission and Electronic Voting Machines upon losing elections, while ignoring the same processes whenever victorious.

00:00The BGP is coming in at the top of 3pm. It's the BGP's latest counter-attack on Rahul Gandhi's vote
00:06Shuri Raga.
00:07The BGP in a scathing counter has said that it's a fake narrative that has been peddled by Rahul Gandhi
00:11and is part of a prolonged and planned conspiracy.
00:16The BGP claims the Congress is trying to hide its poll losses by orchestrating a false narrative through the leader
00:23of opposition.
00:24Now the BGP claims, and I said that this has been going on for a long time in a systemic
00:27manner.
00:27It represents a political U-turn by the Congress Party in order to try and mask the electoral failures.
00:34Let's listen in to what the BGP said.
00:59The BGP has been doing the best to reduce it.
01:03The BGP has been doing the best to reduce it.
01:06The BGP has been doing the best to reduce it.
01:07The BGP is being built in a counter-attack on Rahul Gandhi's vote Shuri Raga.
01:26again with what we heard from Siddharth Yadav.
01:32Well, definitely, you know, it's a Congress versus BJP fight that we are seeing at the
01:36moment with Anshu and also, you know, one of the things that Rahul Gandhi often has
01:40been speaking about since the idea of SIR came about and then we saw order after order
01:45coming in from the Election Commission, the entire opposition, especially the Congress
01:49party has been saying that this is not something which is being done to add more people.
01:54This, in fact, is being done so that people's name can be deleted.
01:58So this is something that we are seeing the Congress party and Rahul Gandhi often speak
02:02about, a very clear rebuttal coming in from the Bharatiya Janta party talking about the
02:072018 Karnataka elections, also speaking about the fact that there were people within the
02:12Congress party, in fact, the ones who were speaking about the way in which names were
02:16being added, but it is Rahul Gandhi now who is speaking about the fact that vote churi
02:20is happening.
02:21Now, this, you know, moniker which is being given by Rahul Gandhi when he speaks about
02:25vote churi, he speaks about the fact that when the SIR is being done across the country,
02:29there are attempts being made to delete more people.
02:32Deletion is being done more, addition is being done at a slower pace.
02:36Rahul Gandhi has been often speaking about, but the BJP believes this is a fake narrative
02:40that the opposition now is trying to peddle.
02:43With Anshu.
02:44Indeed, Ashwarya, and we heard from the BJP as well.
02:46Well, they claim that this is part of a conspiracy which has been going on in a systemic manner
02:49because they have, in 2018, and this is what Siddhati Adhav highlighted also, in 2018, the
02:55Congress claimed that there were 50 lakh duplicate electoral rolls in Andhra Pradesh and 70 lakh
03:00duplicate names in Telangana, but they failed to prove evidence of that in Aghan.
03:04So, a continuation, Ashwarya, of the BJP's counter-attack, saying that it's the Congress party which
03:09has not come to power by itself in West Bengal for years, not come to power by itself in Telangana,
03:15in Andhra Pradesh, with a partner in Tamil Nadu for years, and as a result, it's just coming
03:19up with excuses which conveniently it forgets every time it wins elections in Kerala.
03:28Well, definitely, you know, this is what the BJP often has been speaking about, that whenever
03:33you or your allies, you win a state election, at that time, neither do you point fingers
03:37at the election commission, nor do you speak about the EVMs, but whenever you lose, that's
03:42the time when you start questioning the entire electoral process.
03:46But Rahul Gandhi, you know, on his part just 24 hours ago, was on the banks of Yamuna River
03:51here in the national capital, spoke with the ERO and said that out of 728 people, the names
04:00of 727 people were being removed.
04:04Also spoke about the fact that these people, their houses were demolished just a couple of
04:08days back, but it was the CEC, Gyanesh Kumar, and rightly so, you know, something that was
04:12pointed out by Rahul Gandhi.
04:14Gyanesh Kumar, the CEC, the chief election commissioner, in fact, a couple of months back had said that
04:19people who do not have homes, they also have a right to vote if they are Indian citizens
04:24against their names, against their house numbers, the number 00 will be given.
04:29So, you know, speaking about that, Rahul Gandhi said that there are people whose names are now
04:34being deleted, but the names should be added.
04:37And if the documentation is up to the mark, then it is the responsibility of the election
04:41commission of India, making sure that names are being added.
04:44But it's not just the Congress party.
04:46We speak about TMC, if we speak about Samajwadi party, you know, if we speak about the top
04:52opposition parties, all of them time and again have been pointing fingers at the election
04:56commission and the BJP and saying that there is systematic deletion of voters name from the
05:01voting list that has been going on over the past many years.
05:05And this is a rebuttal coming in from the BJP.
05:08Inida Aishwarya, on that note, let's listen into the specific rebuttal from the BJP about what
05:13the Congress was claiming in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
05:16Let's listen into the BJP spokesperson.
