'Industrial-Scale Liar': BJP Slams Rahul Gandhi After Gurkirat Dang Rejects 'Vote Chori' Allegation

BJP leader Amit Malviya on Sunday lashed out at the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi over his recent "vote chori" presentation, accusing him of spreading misinformation and calling him an "industrial-scale liar".

Sharing a video on X, the BJP leader stated that Gurkirat Singh Dang, the individual Rahul Gandhi had named during his presentation, has publicly rejected the Congress leader's claims.

In the video, Dang refuted Rahul Gandhi's allegation that he had voted multiple times.

"Gurkirat Singh Dang, whom Rahul Gandhi had singled out during his presentation on so-called Vote Chori, has hit back, calling him a bad loser and demanding that he produce proof to substantiate the allegation that he voted multiple times," Malviya wrote on X.

He added, "This isn't the first time - every claim Rahul Gandhi has made has collapsed under scrutiny. Rahul Gandhi is an industrial-scale LIAR."

In the video, Dang addressed the claims made by Rahul Gandhi during his "vote chori" presentation, stating that false allegations are not merely words but carry "possible consequences" leading to "harassment, tarnishing of reputation and undermining public trust in our democracy."

He went on to say, "Losing an election doesn't mean they were rigged."

He also demanded that Rahul either present evidence that he voted four times in the recent Lok Sabha elections or issue an apology. Previously, Rahul Gandhi had alleged irregularities in Karnataka's electoral rolls for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls during a press conference, highlighting instances of alleged multiple voting. He singled out Dang amongst several others, accusing him of holding four voter ID cards and casting four votes. The BJP has rejected these accusations as unfounded and politically motivated. Meanwhile, the Election Commission has rejected Rahul Gandhi's allegations as "absurd" claims and challenged the Congress leader to take an oath and submit a written complaint to the electoral body.
