BJP Flags Controversial Slogans Ahead Of Congress's 'Vote Theft' Rally

The Congress's real objective is to "eliminate" Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the BJP has alleged, after some workers of the main opposition were seen raising controversial slogans at the venue of the Congress's mega rally in Delhi today.

Visuals shared by the news agency IANS showed some Congress workers raising slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and stressing that his rule will come to an end.

"So the agenda is clear. It's not about SIR. It is about Sanvidhan pe Vaar... In the name of SIR - they want to eliminate PM Modi? Recently, Rahul Gandhi threatened the ECI, too. So far, Congress has abused PM Modi 150 + times," BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla said in a post on X.

The Congress is holding a major rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan today to step up its campaign against alleged vote fraud and the Special Intensive Revision of voter lists. The party's workers and leaders from across the country have come to Delhi to attend the mega rally.

BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra told the media that the people "will not tolerate" this disrespect of their "beloved leader". "I have not personally heard this slogan, but I will see through it carefully. If such slogans were indeed raised, it shows that Congress still fails to understand public sentiment. Whenever they have used abusive language against PM Modi or his family, the public has rejected them," Patra said.

Congress leader and Rajya Sabha MP Syed Nasir Hussain trashed the BJP's allegations, terming them "fake news".

Patra said that it is surprising that Congress is holding the rally after the Parliament discussed the alleged vote fraud. "Everyone in the House expressed their thoughts, and the Union Home Minister also responded to them. They made up the entire story, and the Home Minister gave point-by-point responses. When they won in Telangana, Himachal, and Karnataka, no vote theft happened, but where the BJP won, there was vote theft. When the Home Minister mentioned infiltrators, they walked out; this clearly shows that this rally against SIR is an effort by the Congress party to protect the infiltrators," he said.
