The Congress on Friday announced that it will hold a rally on December 14 at Ramlila Maidan here, against the alleged “vote chori”.It alleged that the Election Commission of India (ECI) is now a “blatantly partisan player” that is “completely destroying” the very concept of a level-playing field for all political parties during elections.
Congress General Secretary (Organisation) K C Venugopal said the spectre of “vote chori” is the biggest danger looming over our democracy today.
“To send a message across the nation against these attempts to destroy our Constitution, the Congress will hold the ‘Vote Chor Gaddi Chhod’ Maha Rally on December 14 (1.30 pm onwards) at Ramlila Maidan, New Delhi,” he said on X.
“We have received crores of signatures from every corner of India, rejecting the BJP-ECI’s nefarious tactics like adding bogus voters, deleting opposition-inclined voters, and manipulating voter rolls at a mass scale,” Venugopal said.
Every Indian has seen how the ECI bends rules, ignores violations of model code of conduct, and indulges in daylight bribery to help the BJP rig elections, the Congress leader alleged.
