BJP's Shah Buries Congress's 'Vote Chori' Claims Using History

• Congress, led by Rahul Gandhi, frequently alleged 'Vote Chori' in elections, raising doubts about electoral fairness.
• During a Lok Sabha debate, Amit Shah countered these claims by accusing past Congress leaders (Nehru, Indira, Sonia Gandhi) of historical "vote chori."
• Shah defended EVMs, highlighting their introduction by Rajiv Gandhi and their use during UPA victories, while criticizing the Opposition's non-participation in ECI's hacking challenge.
• The BJP's strategy shifted the debate from technical electoral issues to historical and moral accusations, putting the Congress on the defensive.
• The BJP aimed to politically bury the 'Vote Chori' narrative, framing electoral system questioning as political opportunism.

Why It Matters: BJP reframed 'Vote Chori' debate, challenging Congress's historical legitimacy.
