After Rahul Gandhi's atom bomb evidence remarks on EC's alleged involvement in poll irregularities, the BJP on Friday took a swipe at the Lok Sabha LoP, saying he should consider flowing like water instead of exploding like a bomb.

Speaking at a press conference at the BJP headquarters, party spokesperson Sambit Patra also lashed out at Gandhi for using "undemocratic and undignified" language against a Constitutional body

He said, "Will Rahul Gandhi explode like a bomb? What do you think? Their job is to explode. They have no other work to do".

"You say ‘I will go to the Supreme Court’ or ‘protest democratically’, but ‘explode like a bomb’? This language shows they have no faith in democracy," Patra added. Patra further added that if they (Congress) exploded like an atom bomb, the BJP will save the Constitution.

Earlier in the day, Rahul Gandhi alleged that after six months of investigation, the Congress party finally found open-and-shut evidence of the alleged 'vote theft' by the poll body. He equated the purported evidence with an atom bomb saying that when it would explode, EC would find no place to hide.

Gandhi spoke to the media in the Parliament House complex, saying, "I have said 'vote chori' is happening and now we have open and shut proof that the Election Commission is involved in vote chori."

"We got our own investigation done, it took six months and what we have found is an atom bomb. When it explodes, the EC would have no place to hide in the country," Gandhi said.

Reacting to Gandhi's assertion, the poll body termed the allegations baseless and urged all officials to ignore the 'irresponsible' statements.

EC said, "Election Commission ignores such baseless allegations being made on a daily basis and despite threats being given daily, asks all election officials to ignore such irresponsible statements while working impartially and transparently."
