"No impact": JDU MP Sanjay Kumar Jha on Rahul Gandhi's Bihar visit

Patna (Bihar) [India], September 19 (ANI): Janata Dal (United) MP Sanjay Kumar Jha took a jibe at Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Thursday and said that the Congress leader’s visit to Bihar and his Voter Adhikar Yatra would have no impact on the upcoming Assembly polls.

Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Jha said, “He (Rahul Gandhi) have also roamed around in Bihar, but his visit in Bihar had no impact… People in Bihar are in favour of NDA and Nitish Kumar… Only they can understand what they are saying….”

Reacting to the meeting of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar with Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Jha stated that it was a very good meeting.

Earlier, Union Home Minister Amit Shah slammed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, saying that the latter conducted the Voter Adhikar Yatra with an aim to raise a voice for the Bangladeshi infiltrators whose names were getting struck in the Special Intensive Revision in Bihar.

Addressing a rally in Begusarai, Amit Shah said Rahul Gandhi only cares about “infiltrators from Bangladesh” and has no interest in the development of the youth of Bihar.

“Rahul Baba had come here. He had organised a yatra. The yatra he had organised was to save the infiltrators. Should these infiltrators be on our voter list? Should these infiltrators receive our rations meant for the poor? Should these infiltrators receive employment? Should they receive medical treatment worth up to five lakh rupees? This Rahul Gandhi doesn’t care about the poor of Bihar, the youth of Bihar. He cares about infiltrators from Bangladesh,” the Home Minister said.

Rahul Gandhi’s 15-day-long Voter Adhikar Yatra concluded on September 1. Several INDIA bloc leaders shared the stage with Lok Sabha’s Leader of Opposition in a show of strength.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi slammed the Election Commission of India for allegedly “not cooperating” with the voter fraud investigation opened up by the Karnataka Crime Investigation Department (Karnataka CID) in the Aland assembly segment in the Kalaburagi district.

The leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha has claimed that the investigation into the alleged fraud has been stalled for over 2 years as the poll body is not replying to the letters sent by the CID, calling it “proof” that Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar is “protecting vote chors (vote thieves).

Alleging that the ECI is aware of people who are fraudulently changing the voter lists, he added, “Last letter was sent on September (2025), a few days ago. No reply. This is the proof that Gyanesh Kumar is protecting vote chors. But who are these people? Who is using software, in a centralised manner, deleting the votes of people? Election Commission, Gyanesh Kumar knows who they are.”

Rahul Gandhi said during the press conference that there is a “group of people” who are systematically targeting certain voters who vote for the Opposition parties, and who primarily belong to the OBC, Dalit, and marginalised communities.

“In election after election, someone, some group of people, have been systematically targeting voters for deletions across India. Different communities, mainly those who are voting for the opposition, Dalits, OBCs, adivasis, and minorities, are specifically targeted who vote for the Opposition. We had heard this many times, and now we found 100 per cent proof of it. I am not going to say anything on this stage that is not backed up by 100 per cent proof,” he said.

Talking about the Aland constituency in Karnataka, the Lok Sabha’s Leader of Opposition claimed that there was an attempt to fraudulently delete around 6 thousand votes by unknown people using software. (ANI)
