Rahul Gandhi doubled down on his claims of vote theft in Indian elections during a visit to Wayanad, Kerala, on Saturday. The Congress leader and Lok Sabha Opposition head promised a massive reveal—what he calls a “hydrogen bomb” of evidence—that will expose how Prime Minister Narendra Modi allegedly stole votes to win power.
Speaking to reporters in Wayanad, Gandhi said, “We’re about to drop a hydrogen bomb that will shatter the truth wide open. We have airtight proof—I’m not talking without evidence. We’ve got 100% solid facts on what happened, and it’s all coming out soon.”
He pointed to examples from previous press conferences in Mahadevpura and Aland, where he highlighted what he described as systematic fraud in adding or deleting voters. “We’ve shown it there, and we’ll show it everywhere so no one in India doubts that Narendra Modi engaged in vote chori and won the election,” Gandhi added.
Gandhi also targeted Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, accusing him of shielding those behind the vote theft. He cited an ongoing CID investigation in Karnataka over attempts to delete names of around 6,000 voters in the Aland assembly constituency. “We laid out black-and-white proof in yesterday’s press conference. The CID is probing phone numbers used for this vote chori, and now they’re asking Gyanesh Kumar for details. That’s the biggest indictment of the CEC—it’s not my words; it’s the facts,” the Lok Sabha leader stated.
When journalists pressed if this “hydrogen bomb” proof involves Modi’s Varanasi Lok Sabha seat, Gandhi kept it vague. “That’s for you to speculate on—my job is to deliver,” he replied with a smile.
Earlier in the day, Gandhi joined his sister, Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi, for the inauguration of the Oommen Chandy Memorial Auditorium in Kottathara Grama Panchayat, Venniyodu. The event honored the late Kerala Chief Minister, whom Gandhi praised for his down-to-earth style. “Oommen Chandy stayed humble even in power because of his deep connection with Kerala’s people. But you see some national leaders in India who get a taste of power and turn arrogant—they lack any humility,” Gandhi remarked.
This comes just days after Gandhi’s September 18 press conference in New Delhi, where he accused Gyanesh Kumar of protecting forces undermining Indian democracy. He alleged a targeted effort to strip votes from minority groups that back Congress. Gandhi teased the “hydrogen bomb” reveal but didn’t drop it yet.
The Election Commission of India fired back, stating no public member can delete votes online. In a detailed response, they denied any wrongful deletions in Aland and clarified the process to counter the vote theft allegations.
