Vote Chori Row: The Rajasthan Police on Thursday took action against a constable for posted in Didwana-Kuchaman for sharing a post by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi using the official X handle of the district police. He was shunted to police lines after he allegedly reposted a post by the Congress leader.
Gandhi's X post, which alleged "vote theft" in Haryana by the Modi government and the Election Commission of India, was reposted on Wednesday evening.
However, it was removed immediately after the matter came to the notice of senior officials. Officials said that the police department does not support the post.
The accused constable was responsible for operating the X handle of the district police. He was removed from the duty and attached to police lines, the Superintendent of Police, Richa Tomar, said.
The police department does not support the post and it was removed immediately after it came to notice, she added.
"The post may have been shared due to an individual's mistake or account hacking. A detailed inquiry has been assigned to the Additional Superintendent of Police, Didwana," the SP added.
The post had claimed irregularities in Haryana's voter list, including multiple votes registered under the same photo and duplicate entries across different constituencies.
Meanwhile, Gandhi, in a presser, presented electoral list data to claim that 25 lakh entries were fake and the Election Commission colluded with the BJP to make the party win in Haryana. The elaborate plan included a Brazilian model whose photograph was used 22 times in 10 booths in the Rai assembly constituency during the 2024 assembly elections, the former Congress president said at the press conference during which he put up a presentation to back his claim. The poll authority, Gandhi added, launched "Operation Sarkar Chori" to convert the landslide victory of his party into a loss in the state.
