Rahul Gandhi suggested the EC publish the data on their website for transparency. He dismissed the notices as a distraction from larger electoral issues, alleging similar discrepancies in other constituencies beyond Bengaluru

New Delhi: Responding to notices from the Election Commission, Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi stated, “It is their (Election Commission) data. It is not my data that I will sign (an affidavit)... Put that data on your website and you will get to know. All this is just to distract from the issue.”
He further claimed that the matter was not limited to one city, saying, “This has not just taken place in Bengaluru but several other constituencies too...”
“The Election Commission knows its data will explode. We will expose whatever they are trying to hide,” he added.
Earlier in the day, the MPs from the INDIA bloc held a march from the Parliament to the EC headquarters in Ashoka Road in Delhi over" voter fraud" in the 2024 general election and special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar.
The Delhi Police detained Rahul Gandhi, Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi and other INDIA bloc MPs during their protest march.
Rahul Gandhi said that the Opposition's fight is not a political fight but a fight to save the Constitution.
"The reality is that they cannot talk. The truth is in front of the country. This fight is not political. This fight is to save the Constitution. This fight is for One Man, One Vote. We want a clean, pure voters list," the Congress leader said.
