Joshi slams Congress over vote theft allegations
Hubballi: Union minister Pralhad Joshi on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the Congress party , accusing it of making baseless allegations of vote theft in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. "Let them file a complaint with the Election Commission in that case," he said. Speaking to reporters here, Joshi said Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has lost his balance. "Rahul Baba claims the Election Commission is dead. How did the Congress treat it in the past? Why did Congress postpone elections after Rajiv Gandhi's death? They even carried his ashes in a procession to gather sympathy votes. There is a limit to such foolishness," he lashed out. On the Mahadayi river dispute, Joshi said, "Karnataka had approached the Supreme Court against the Goa order. Earlier, Congress leader Sonia Gandhi had said that not a drop of water would be given to Karnataka. Now, the Union govt has stepped up. Everything should be disclosed as it is before the court."
