Yadav said Gandhi had been claiming that the proof he will present will be like an “atom bomb.””It was like the case of someone cutting the branch one is sitting on,” he said, accusing him of using an arrogant and threatening language against the EC.If the Congress leader has real objections to the polling process, then he should file an affidavit on oath to the EC, he added, in reference to Gandhi’s presentation to the media on Thursday.He accused the Congress leader of repeatedly trying to peddle lies to tarnish the poll body following his poll losses.His modus operandi is to “lie and run away”, he said, claiming the Opposition’s disruption of Parliament over the Special Intensive Review of electoral rolls in Bihar is aimed at running away from discussion.”The Congress is trying to belittle our constitutional bodies in a systematic way for a family,” he said, alleging that Gandhi had earlier demeaned the armed forces as well.He had to apologise to the Supreme Court for making wrong claims, the BJP leader added.He said institutions like the armed forces, Parliament or the Election Commission are autonomous and work independently, and any following the Constitution should not use threatening language against them, he said.Gandhi on Thursday cited an analysis of data from a Lok Sabha constituency in Karnataka from the 2024 elections to make explosive claims of “huge criminal fraud” in polls perpetrated by the BJP through the Election Commission, and asserted that this was a “crime” against the Constitution. He has also been alleging that the Maharashtra polls were rigged to ensure the win for the BJP-led alliance.
