Rahul calls PM, Shah, CEC ‘traitors’, wants Gyanesh Kumar to quit

In a no-holds-barred attack, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar are "deshdrohis" (traitors) who have "destroyed" India's voting system and asked the CEC to immediately resign and turn an "approver". Addressing a press conference in New Delhi on Thursday, the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha alleged that India's elections have been fundamentally broken, vote destroyed and institutions captured by Modi and Shah, who would be investigated for their conspiracy to "steal elections" and for what they have done to the country.
Gandhi claimed further revelations will come out soon on the problems in the system. He also claimed that the opposition stood united on this issue and the Congress would work together to highlight the 'vote chori' issue among the people.He alleged all elections including those to several assemblies were "rigged" and the 2024 Lok Sabha polls were "completely fake" and the EC has lost its credibility. "This is an attack on the Constitution and the country's legal structure. You were supposed to ensure that the vote was protected... There are going to be consequences to this. We are not going to let democracy be destroyed and sit silent. Those responsible will be punished," Gandhi said.
"The prime minister and Amit Shah are both going to be investigated for what has been done. Without any doubt, both the PM and Amit Shah, are at the top of this conspiracy and they are going to be investigated for what they have done to this country," Gandhi said and added that this is an act against the Indian state and its people. "From 'vote chori', comes 'kanoon chori' and from that comes 'sanstha chori'," he said.
He also showed photographs of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, former education minister Dharmendra Pradhan and Piyush Goyal, among others, under the header "pawns".Noting that vote is the foundation of our democracy, Gandhi said the EC protects it and the Constitution.
