Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], July 12 : Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA Ram Kadam on Saturday hit back at Rahul Gandhi's statement, accusing the Gandhi family of "looting in the greed of power" and claiming that the Congress is "bound to lose" in Bihar and is already preparing excuses for its likely defeat.
Speaking to ANI, Ram Kadam said, "What has the Gandhi family ever done apart from looting in the greed of power? They were slammed by the court, every evidence presented... They are bound to lose in Bihar and thinking of what excuse to tell people after losing..."
Kadam's remarks come after Rahul Gandhi accused the Election Commission of India of "hatching a conspiracy" for "chunav chori (election theft)" in Bihar.
While addressing Samvidhan Bachao Samavesh in Bhubaneswar on Friday, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi accused the Election Commission of India of "hatching a conspiracy" for "chunav chori (election theft)" in Bihar, referring to the poll body's decision to revise electoral rolls in the state ahead of the assembly election there.
Gandhi said that ECI is "working as a BJP wing" and alleged that similar attempts to "steal election" are being made in Bihar, just like they were made in Maharashtra.
"BJP is attacking the constitution. Yesterday I was in Bihar. Just like 'chunav chori' was done in Maharashtra, similar attempts are being made to do "chunav chori" in Bihar. EC has hatched a new conspiracy for 'chunav chori'. EC is working as a BJP wing, it is not doing its own job," Rahul Gandhi said.
Referring to the Maharashtra Assembly election in which Mahavikas Aghadi suffered a staggering loss last year, Rahul Gandhi said that over 1 crore new voters were added then. Congress MP added that the same "theft" is being done in Bihar.
"In Maharashtra, between Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha elections, one crore new voters were added. Nobody knows who were these voters and where did they come from. We told EC several times to provide us with the voter list and videography. But EC does not provide us with the same. They are going to do the same 'chori' in Bihar, that was done in Maharashtra. I went to Bihar yesterday and with INDIA alliance leaders, I said that we will not let EC and BJP do a 'chori' of Bihar elections," he said.
