Patna: As the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is heading towards a one-sided victory in the Bihar Assembly Elections 2025, the Congress took a dig at the Election Commission of India (ECI) on Friday. Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera said that the Bihar elections were between the ECI and the people of the state.
Lashing out at Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, Khera said, "This contest is between the Election Commission of India and the people of Bihar. There was a book called ‘To Serve with Love.’ Gyanesh Kumar Gupta is writing this book for PM Modi.”
While commenting on the early trend, Khera stated that Gyanesh Kumar Gupta was making an impact on the people of Bihar.
"The people have shown great courage despite issues like SIR and ‘vote chori.’ How effective Gyanesh Kumar Gupta will be remains to be seen," he added.
