RaGa puts BJP, CEC on notice at INDIA bloc rally

Launching one of his sharpest attacks on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday accused the BJP of stealing elections through alleged manipulation of voter lists and electronic voting machines, warning that those responsible would face legal action, and declared that the Opposition would not allow the Constitution and democracy to be destroyed.

Addressing the INDIA bloc's 'Vote Bachao, Desh Bachao' mega rally at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan, Gandhi said the gathering was not the voice of any one political party or its leaders, but of India's youth, farmers and labourers. He warned the ruling establishment that no amount of wealth or political power could place it above the Constitution.

"We had to send a message to the country, to Narendra Modi, Amit Shah and Gyanesh Kumar. This is not the voice of one political party or of its leaders. This is the voice of India's youth, farmers and labourers. This voice is saying that we will not let democracy end in India or allow the Constitution to be destroyed," he said.

"You may consider yourself very powerful and wealthy, but you are not bigger than the Constitution."
