‘Children are also putting’ vote thieves, slogan of Gaddi ‘, Rahul Gandhi surrounds BJP on Bihar SIR controversy

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said on Sunday (August 24, 2025) that all the constituents of the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (India) in Bihar are working united for the upcoming assembly elections and will get meaningful results.

Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, while addressing a press conference with Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav in Araria, said that the ‘India’ alliance will soon release a sharing manifesto for the election to be held later this year.

Shared manifesto for Bihar assembly elections

Gandhi said that the ‘India’ alliance will soon release a common manifesto for the Bihar assembly elections. All the constituents of the opposition coalition are working in ideological and politically united and will get meaningful results.

He said, ‘I call it a good partnership among all the constituents of’ India ‘alliance.’ Targeting the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government at the Center, Gandhi alleged that the special intensive revision (SIR) of voter list in Eastern State Bihar is an institutional effort of the Election Commission to steal votes to help the BJP.

‘Affidavit with opposition, no question from ruling party’

He said, ‘We will not let the Election Commission steal votes in Bihar. The Election Commission is working to benefit the BJP. SIR from the Election Commission is an institutional effort to help the BJP by stealing votes in the upcoming assembly elections in the state.

Gandhi said that the Election Commission has been completely exposed while working for the BJP. He said, ‘When I told the Election Commission about the irregularities in preparing voter list in Haryana, Maharashtra and Karnataka, the Election Commission asked me for an affidavit on this issue, but when Anurag Thakur of the ruling party said the same in a press conference, the Commission did not ask for any affidavit.

‘Children are also putting’ vote thieves, the slogan of Gaddi Chhudi ‘

He said that this shows that the Election Commission is not fair. There is a need to change the partisan behavior of the Election Commission. Rahul Gandhi said, ” Voter Adhikar Yatra ‘has been very successful in Bihar and people have joined in large numbers. We have got the support of crores of people of the state, who are automatically associated with us. This has proved that the Election Commission is stealing people’s votes in Bihar.

Gandhi said, ‘The impact of our journey can be gauged from the fact that now even small children are raising the slogan of’ Vote thieves, Gaddi Chhut ‘.’ However, he refrained from giving a direct answer to the question as to why the grand alliance is not declaring Tejashwi Yadav as the Chief Ministerial candidate of the ‘India’ alliance in the upcoming election. He said, ‘We are supporting each other and we have to stop’ vote theft ‘.’

In the joint press conference, Dipankar Bhattacharya of the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Liberation, Mukesh Sahni of Developing Human Party (VIP) and Deputy Chief Minister of Karnataka D.K. Many other leaders of ‘India’ alliance including Shivkumar were also present.
