Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Manan Kumar Mishra on Friday hit out at Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, over his statement accusing the Election Commission of India (ECI) of vote theft, stating that if the Congress MP have such evidence, then he must submit it to the Supreme Court.
Mishra further slammed Rahul Gandhi, stating that he is making false claims without any proof.
"If he truly has any evidence, he should present the proof in the Supreme Court of India and the Election Commission. He should also present it to the public. As it stands, he is simply making false claims; he has no proof," Mishra told ANI.
Earlier in the day, Congress MP and Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, criticised the ECI, accusing the poll body of being complicit in "vote theft" to benefit the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Gandhi claimed his party has "open-and-shut proof" of the alleged electoral malpractice, which he likened to an "atom bomb" that will expose the ECI's involvement when revealed.
Talking to reporters on the Bihar Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise, the Congress said, "Votes are being stolen. We have open-and-shut proof that the Election Commission is involved in this vote theft. And I'm not saying this lightly, I'm speaking with 100% proof. And when we release it (proof), the entire country will come to know that the Election Commission is enabling vote theft. And who are they doing it for? They're doing it for the BJP."
