BJP today hit out at Congress MP and Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi over his vote theft allegations against the Election Commission.

Addressing the media in New Delhi, BJP MP Anurag Thakur alleged that Mr Gandhi blames Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) whenever he loses elections. He said that after every defeat, Congress tries to find excuses instead of taking accountability.

Mr Thakur accused Congress of blaming EVMs, the Election Commission and constitutional institutions without introspection. He alleged that Congress is already engaging in making false allegations in connivance with opposition parties.

Mr Thakur asserted that, seeing that they are likely to lose the Bihar elections, Congress has joined hands with the opposition to peddle lies.
