JP Nadda Slams Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Match-Fixing’ Claims As ‘Desperation Of Losing’ Polls

JP Nadda, Union Minister and BJP President, on Saturday dismissed Rahul Gandhi’s ‘match-fixing’ allegation in the Maharashtra Assembly elections. He called Gandhi’s article a ‘blueprint for manufacturing fake narratives’.

Rahul Gandhi’s opinion piece appeared in a national daily and sparked political uproar.

Opposition parties claimed it revealed large-scale manipulation in the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly elections. They also criticised the Election Commission’s silence on questions raised by the opposition.

Gandhi alleged the BJP orchestrated a massive rigging plan. He called it a ‘systematic assault on democracy’. Additionally, he repeated allegations he had earlier made in Parliament and at a press conference.

Gandhi further claimed the Maharashtra polls saw extraordinary malpractice.

Nadda Terms Gandhi’s Claims ‘Desperate Lies’

Nadda responded on the social media platform X, posting, “Rahul Gandhi’s latest article is a blueprint for manufacturing fake narratives, owing to his sadness and desperation of losing election after election.”

He shared a news article claiming to expose the Congress leader’s ‘lies’ about the Maharashtra Assembly elections.

“Here’s how he does it, step by step,” the post added.

BJP Dismisses Electoral Rigging Allegations

In his article, Gandhi alleged that the BJP used multiple tactics to manipulate the Maharashtra polls. He claimed tampering in appointing Election Commission members, inflated voter lists, and a lack of scrutiny of discrepancies.

He warned that the same strategy could affect the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections.

Nadda dismissed the charges as baseless. “Despite being exposed time and again, he shamelessly keeps peddling lies. And, he is doing this because a defeat in Bihar is certain. Democracy doesn’t need drama. It needs truth.”
