Rahul also alleged that the EC refused to provide the INDIA bloc with the voters’ list and videography of polling booths from Maharashtra. “They are hiding the truth. I say it clearly the mandate was stolen in Maharashtra, and now they’re trying the same in Bihar,” he asserted.Gandhi said that INDIA bloc leaders had raised concerns about the SIR of electoral rolls in Bihar during a meeting with the Election Commissioner. When he asked what the EC’s response was, they told him the Commissioner was “speaking the language of the BJP and RSS.”“The Election Commissioner must remember that he is not a member of any political party his duty is to safeguard the Constitution,” Gandhi declared, warning that although the Commissioner may act freely now, the law would not spare him.Addressing the gathering, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav added, “The Election Commission has become a puppet of the BJP. With its help, the BJP will first erase the votes of the poor and then take away their ration, pensions, and reservations ultimately stripping them of their right to vote.”Tejashwi concluded with a note of defiance: “Bihar is the birthplace of democracy. Biharis will not allow this. They may be poor, but they are aware, alert, and ready for the struggle.”
