In a charged political rally in Bihar, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge launched an attack on the Election Commission, accusing it of partiality towards the Narendra Modi-led government. He labeled the government as dangerous and a threat to democracy, alleging manipulation of electoral rolls to favor the BJP.
Kharge's allegations were backed by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who cited the addition of a million voters in Maharashtra supporting the BJP. Kharge criticized the Modi administration for appointing a Union minister to influence the Election Commission, bypassing the Supreme Court's advice.
The rally saw a chorus of opposition leaders, including Lalu Prasad, calling for unity to oust the BJP-RSS combine and restore democracy. The event marked the launch of a 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' aimed at mobilizing voters against the current establishment in Bihar.
