Overview
- Presenting what he called proof of 'vote chori,' Gandhi claimed one in eight Haryana voter entries was suspect, citing 5.21 lakh duplicates, 93,174 invalid addresses and 19.26 lakh bulk voters.
- He showcased examples including a photo he said was of a Brazilian model used for 22 votes across 10 booths and an image appearing 223 times, asserting a centrally run operation.
- Gandhi accused the EC and BJP of collusion, alleged CCTV footage was destroyed and said the method has been 'industrialised'; BJP figures dismissed the charges as baseless.
- EC officials countered during the presser that there were zero appeals against Haryana rolls, questioned why polling agents did not object and pressed Gandhi on his stance toward Special Intensive Revision.
- On the eve of Bihar’s first-phase polling on November 6 for 121 seats, Gandhi warned the same method could be used there, as Priyanka Gandhi alleged 65 lakh deletions during SIR and NDA leaders attacked the Opposition’s manifesto and predicted victory.
