The Congress leader on Thursday accused the Election Commission (EC) of allowing cheating in a constituency in Karnataka and asserted that the poll watchdog is mistaken if it thinks that it is going to get away with this.
Gandhi alleged that the Election Commission of India is "not doing its job".
"Not 90 per cent, when we decide to show it to you, it is a 100 per cent proof," he asserted about EC cheating in Karnataka.
The Congress leader on Thursday claimed that elections are being "stolen" in India and claimed that his party has figured out the modus operandi of the "votes theft" by studying a Lok Sabha constituency in Karnataka.
"We just looked at one constituency and we found this. I am absolutely convinced that constituency after constituency this is the drama that is taking place. Thousands and thousands of new voters, how old are they? -- 45, 50, 60, 65, thousands and thousands of them in one constituency. This is one thing, voter deletion, voter addition, new voters who are way above 18 (is going on)... so we have caught them," he said.
Gandhi told reporters in Parliament House premises that he wants to send a message to the Election Commission, saying "if you think you are going to get away with this, if your officers think they are going to get away with this, you are mistaken, you are not going to get away with this because we are going to come for you."
Gandhi said he would put before the people and the Election Commission in black in white on how the "theft of votes" is being done.
Gandhi's accusation came after it emerged that during house-to-house visits in the ongoing SIR of electoral roll in Bihar, officials found that more than 52 lakh voters were not present at their addresses.
The opposition has been protesting in both houses of Parliament against the SIR, alleging that the EC's exercise was aimed at disenfranchising voters in Bihar ahead of the assembly elections.
