'Fake AI photo to show Ramlila ground was full': Kiren Rijiju targets Congress over rally image
Rijiju said the Congress used a fake AI image as BJP leaders claimed 5,000 to 7,000 of 28,000 chairs were empty.
- On Sunday, the INDIA bloc held a 'Vote Bachao, Desh Bachao' rally at New Delhi's Ramlila Maidan, but the Bharatiya Janata Party dismissed the event as a 'flop show,' claiming around 40 per cent of the venue remained vacant.
- Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi and alliance leaders demanded the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, alleging 'vote theft' and electoral irregularities during the 2024 Lok Sabha and state Assembly elections.
- BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra disputed the claimed 10 lakh turnout, stating around 5,000 to 7,000 of the 28,000 chairs were empty between 3:30 pm and 4 pm, calling the address a 'complete waste of time.'
- Rejecting Gandhi's 'illegal' election claims, Patra noted Kumar was not Chief Election Commissioner in 2024 and challenged the opposition to file a formal court petition instead of declaring results invalid years later.
- BJP leaders contrasted Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rise as a 'chaiwala' against dynastic entitlement, warning that Gandhi's 'mock parliament' strategy and rhetoric only promote 'anarchy' and 'chaotic' spectacles.
