Amit Shah addressed a gathering in Hyderabad, criticizing Congress over the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched a jibe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday, saying the Leader of Opposition would never become Prime Minister, while accusing the Congress of opposing the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls to protect its alleged vote bank of infiltrators.
Addressing a gathering in Hyderabad, Shah questioned the Congress's opposition to SIR, asking why the party was not in power in several states if electoral roll revision was responsible for its electoral setbacks.
"The entire Congress and company want to stop SIR because infiltrators are their vote bank," Shah alleged.
The Home Minister also accused the Congress of attempting to come to power through bogus voting, alleging that the party wanted to prevent the removal of ineligible voters from electoral rolls.
Responding to Rahul Gandhi's claim that 13 crore votes had been removed, Shah alleged that the Congress leader was lying.
"Rahul Gandhi claims that 13 crore votes have been deleted. He is lying. Of these 13 crore names, around 6.25 crore belong to people who have shifted to other places. Should a person who has moved elsewhere be allowed to vote in two places? Nearly 2.8 crore, or around three crore, people have died. Should the names of those who have died be removed from the electoral rolls or not? Rahul Gandhi, when these people are no longer alive, who will come and cast their votes? The Congress party wants to win elections through bogus voting," he said.
He also targeted the Congress government in Telangana, accusing it of turning the state into an "ATM for Delhi durbar".
