Rahul Gandhi Links Youth Unemployment to 'Vote Chori' in Fresh Attack on BJP

The Election Commission rejects the charge of manipulated rolls and says it will act only on sworn, specific complaints.

Overview

  • Posting on X, the Congress leader called unemployment the top concern for young Indians and claimed it is directly tied to alleged vote theft.
  • He alleged the BJP stays in power by controlling institutions, citing what he called a 45-year high in joblessness and collapsed recruitment.
  • He shared a split‑screen video juxtaposing police action against job‑seeking protesters with footage of Prime Minister Modi engaged in public‑facing activities.
  • He urged youth to oppose what he termed job theft and vote theft, calling such resistance an expression of patriotism.
  • The ECI reiterated that voter deletions follow legal verification by Booth Level Officers, BJP figures like Nishikant Dubey dismissed his claims, and reports noted the push comes ahead of Bihar assembly polls.
