Prasad said Rahul Gandhi never does homework and makes careless statements without verifying facts. He accused the Congress leader of misleading people to cover up his party’s failures. According to Prasad, such allegations are part of a pattern where Gandhi avoids real issues and instead resorts to sensational claims.

The BJP leader added that the Election Commission maintains transparency in the voting process, and no evidence supports Gandhi’s charge of irregularities. He emphasized that making reckless statements damages the credibility of democratic institutions.

Prasad also reminded voters that Congress has consistently lost ground in Karnataka due to weak leadership and poor performance. He said Rahul Gandhi should focus on rebuilding his party instead of spreading baseless claims.

The war of words between the BJP and Congress is expected to intensify as both parties gear up for upcoming elections. Prasad’s sharp remarks highlight the growing tension between the ruling party and the opposition.

Gandhi cited examples from Aland constituency in Karnataka, where he alleged that fake logins and outside mobile numbers were used to process deletions via Form-7 requests. He also claimed that the state CID had repeatedly asked the Election Commission (EC) for technical evidence, such as IP logs and OTP details, but never received cooperation.

The Election Commission quickly dismissed the charge, insisting that no names can be removed from rolls without mandatory verification. Officials stressed that established procedures ensure fairness and prevent mass deletion through online tools alone.

The BJP too hit back sharply, accusing Gandhi of spreading misinformation. Party leaders said his remarks were baseless, irresponsible, and politically motivated, arguing that he was trying to cast doubt on democratic institutions without presenting solid proof.

While Gandhi frames his comments as a warning against electoral fraud, both the EC and BJP argue his claims erode public trust without cause. The row has reignited debate about whether India’s voter roll system has enough transparency and safeguards.

As Karnataka prepares for upcoming electoral contests, the issue of voter deletions has become a political flashpoint. Gandhi has demanded the EC make all digital records public, while the BJP maintains the opposition is simply manufacturing controversy.

The controversy grew when BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari reacted to the letter. He praised Prime Minister Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, claiming this marks a victory. This raised suspicions about the letter’s authenticity, with some questioning whether it was fabricated by the police or a faction within the Maoist party.

A key point of suspicion is the inclusion of Abhay’s photo in the letter. It is the first time such a photo has appeared. Critics suggest this could signal a shift in party ideology, especially after internal disputes within the Maoist group. Some believe the photo indicates that Abhay supports peace talks.
