BJP Criticizes Congress for Baseless Allegations Post Haryana Elections

BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari criticized Congress after Election Commission India dismissed Congress's allegations of irregularities in Haryana's elections. Bhandari labeled Congress as anti-democracy, noting their frequent attacks on democratic institutions without evidence. ECI urged Congress to exercise caution when making claims, highlighting previous baseless allegations.

BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari has launched a scathing attack on the Congress party, following the Election Commission of India's decision to reject allegations of electoral irregularities in Haryana.

Bhandari accused the Congress of being an anti-democracy party, claiming it habitually questions democratic institutions like the Election Commission and the Supreme Court without proof. His comments came after the ECI labelled Congress's electoral allegations as baseless.

The ECI, in a letter to Congress, warned against unfounded claims that potentially incite public unrest. It urged the party, given its extensive experience, to exercise greater diligence in its criticism of electoral processes. The BJP's victory in Haryana, gaining 48 seats, reinforced its mandate.
