In a heated political exchange, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini lambasted Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for allegedly misleading the country with falsehoods regarding the integrity of the 2024 Haryana assembly elections. Saini refrained from commenting on Gandhi's specific allegations of election rigging, which Gandhi had supported with what he called the H-files presentation.
The controversy arose when Gandhi asserted that the assembly polls were rigged, citing 25 lakh fake entries in the electoral roll and a Brazilian model's photo used multiple times. He accused the BJP and the Election Commission of colluding to secure BJP's victory.
However, both the BJP and the Election Commission dismissed these claims as unfounded. BJP representatives, including minister Kiren Rijiju, criticized Gandhi for questioning the Election Commission without taking formal legal steps, while Election Commission officials stated no appeals against the electoral data were lodged.
