In a heated political exchange, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of orchestrating a massive electoral fraud in the Bangalore Central parliamentary constituency, specifically citing the Mahadevapura Assembly segment. Gandhi alleged that 1,00,250 votes were unlawfully taken by the ruling party.
In response, BJP MP P C Mohan countered the claims, describing Gandhi's accusations as unsubstantiated and politically motivated. Mohan argued that the BJP's win in the Hindu-majority Mahadevapura was the result of voters' decisive rejection of Congress's dynastic and appeasement politics, not fraud.
The allegations have sparked a political storm, with both parties attempting to sway public perception. The BJP has maintained its narrative of stability and development versus what it labels as Congress's divisive and entitlement-driven politics, further deepening the political divide in the region.
