Rajanna Row | "Vote Theft Happened Under Congress", Karnataka Minister Sacked After Shocking Claim

Karnataka minister K N Rajanna has been removed from the cabinet after publicly claiming that "vote theft" took place during the Congress government's tenure in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. His comments, made while Rahul Gandhi is leading a national campaign against alleged poll fraud, directly pointed fingers at the Siddaramaiah government. The statement sparked controversy within the party, and according to reports, the directive to sack Rajanna came directly from Rahul Gandhi. Following his removal, thousands of supporters took to the streets of Bengaluru in protest. Rajanna has called the move a "grave insult" and a "big controversy" against him.
