‘Give an affidavit or apologize to the country’, Election Commission’s blunt on Rahul Gandhi’s allegations
The Election Commission has given a strong reply to the recent allegations of Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi. The Commission said that Rahul Gandhi is repeating the old and solved things in the name of irregularities in the voter list, due to which the public is being misled.
Responding to Rahul Gandhi’s allegations, the Election Commission said that in 2018, the then Madhya Pradesh Congress President Kamal Nath had filed a petition in the Supreme Court by making similar allegations, but the court rejected him. The errors that were cited at that time were improved four months before the petition was filed.
Similarly, in 2025, Rahul Gandhi, while referring to the case “Aditya Srivastava”, alleged that the same person’s name is registered in three different states. The Commission says that the matter was also resolved months ago.
Give an affidavit or apologize to the country- Election Commission
Accusing Rahul Gandhi of ignoring the decisions of the Supreme Court, the Election Commission said, “Repeatedly raise the same issue shows disrespect to the decisions of the court.” The Commission also clarified that the legal process of objection and appeal on the enrollment is fixed, but Rahul Gandhi adopted the path of rhetoric in the media instead of following it. The Commission challenged Rahul and said that if Rahul Gandhi trusts his allegations, he should take legal action by giving an affidavit, otherwise the country should apologize.
Meanwhile, the Chief Electoral Officer of Karnataka, State Congress President D.K. Writing a letter to Shivkumar, he has asked to certify the complaint given on August 5 through affidavit. At the same time, the Commission also rejected Rahul Gandhi’s statement in which he claimed that the Commission’s website is not working.
