Vote Chor Gaddi Chhod
The Congress party have raised several specific concerns regarding the integrity of the voting process in the state : - Voter List "Infiltration": He alleged that Maharashtra's electoral rolls grew by roughly 71 lakh voters in just five months (a 13% increase), which he described as mathematically improbable and suspicious. - The "65 Lakh" Spike: During a speech, Gandhi claimed that 65 lakh votes were added to the tally in just two hours (between 5:30 PM and 7:30 PM on polling day), calling the surge "physically impossible." - Data Manipulation: Allegations were made that thousands of voters were deleted from lists in specific constituencies (approximately 10,000 per seat) while "bogus" entries with fake addresses or duplicate photos were added.
