Rahul Gandhi claims 25 lakh 'vote chori' in Haryana, Brazilian model on voter list

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi held a press conference today where he alleged a massive, centralised operation to manipulate the Haryana election results. "I am questioning the Election Commission, I am questioning the democratic process in India. So I am doing it with 100% proof," Gandhi stated.

He presented data alleging major discrepancies between exit polls, which predicted a Congress sweep, and the final results where the party lost by a narrow margin. Gandhi cited irregularities in postal ballots and highlighted the case of a Brazilian model's stock photograph allegedly being used for multiple fake voter entries as part of 2.5 million fraudulent records. He also questioned a statement by Haryana's Chief Minister about having a 'vyavastha' (system) in place before the results were declared.
