The Assassination of Democracy
1. Introduction: The Ancestral ‘Vote Thief’ and the Core Character of Congress
- Ever since India’s independence, grave and historical accusations have been leveled against the Congress party and its top leadership for discarding democratic norms to win elections.
- Today, those individuals and parties who cry foul over EVMs and spread false narratives of “vote theft” among the public must never forget the history that the core DNA of Congress rests upon electoral malpractice, institutional misuse, and a greed for power.
- Let us take a detailed look at those dark chapters of Indian history that expose the real face of Congress.
2. From the Pages of History: The Three Greatest Vote Thefts of the Congress Era
The First Vote Theft (1952): The Planned Conspiracy Against Babasaheb Ambedkar
- Historical Background: Immediately after India’s independence in 1952, the architect of the Constitution, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, contested his first Lok Sabha election. People from every class, caste, and community in that election had voted heavily in favor of Babasaheb.
- Institutional Malpractice: Due to massive political pressure from the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and the Congress party, approximately 74,000 valid votes of that election were declared illegal and cancelled.
- Outcome: Through this planned and cunning conspiracy, Babasaheb Ambedkar was defeated by 16,000 votes. This was the first and largest vote theft committed by Congress against the democracy of independent India and the architect of the Constitution.
The Second Vote Theft (1971): Indira Gandhi’s Corrupt Election and the Court’s Seal
- Event: In 1971, the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi contested the Lok Sabha election from Rae Bareli. Standing against her in the electoral arena was the socialist leader and social worker Rajnarayan Ji.
- Judicial Struggle: After the election, Rajnarayan Ji filed an election petition in the Allahabad High Court, leveling serious allegations that Indira Gandhi had won the election by grossly misusing government machinery, exerting administrative pressure, and employing corrupt practices.
- Historical Verdict: In 1975, the historic verdict of the High Court arrived in which the court found Indira Gandhi guilty of corrupt practices, declared her election null and void, and termed it completely illegal. This was a direct, open murder of the constitution and democracy during the Congress regime.
The Third Vote Theft (1974): The Terrifying and Criminal Game of Swapping Ballot Boxes (Chandrabhanu Gupta and H.N. Bahuguna)
- Event: In 1974, Hemwati Nandan Bahuguna (H.N. Bahuguna) served as the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, and he was counted among the closest and most trusted confidants of Indira Gandhi. At that time, the political standing of Congress was quite weak both in Uttar Pradesh and across the country.
- Political Enmity and Conspiracy: Indira Gandhi entrusted Bahuguna with the task of setting a major narrative to win UP. At that time, the biggest political rival facing Bahuguna was Chandrabhanu Gupta, who had previously served as the Chief Minister of UP four times. He used to be in Congress himself earlier, but later joined Congress (O) and had parted ways with Indira Gandhi, which is why Indira Gandhi held intense political animosity toward him.
- The Deal for the Release of Criminals: Bahuguna wanted to please Indira Gandhi at any cost. According to multiple historical documents and evidence available on the internet, several notorious dacoits were released from jails during this election on the condition that if Congress won the election and defeated Chandrabhanu Gupta, their entire sentences would be pardoned.
- Exposing the Ballot Box Loot: The elections took place, and four-time Chief Minister Chandrabhanu Gupta lost the election from the Lucknow Cantonment seat—not only did he lose, but his security deposit was also forfeited, and he finished fourth. Approximately 3 years later, when both Chandrabhanu Gupta and Bahuguna left Congress and joined the Janata Party, during a conversation, Chandrabhanu Gupta asked Bahuguna, “Tell me this, how did I lose so badly 3 years ago and end up in fourth place?”
- The Revelation of Truth: Then Bahuguna admitted and clearly stated, “We had actually replaced the ballot boxes containing the election results, which is why you lost the election so badly.”
This is the exact ballot box culture that Congress and its allies wish to advocate for once again, so that they can return to their old methods of theft. For this very reason, EVMs are being condemned today, and ballot papers or ballot boxes are being strongly advocated.
3. Modern Hypocrisy: Those Who Stole All Their Lives Are Now Crying ‘Vote Theft’
Today, witness the height of irony: political parties and leaders who have crushed democratic institutions their entire lives are now attempting to mislead the innocent public of the country by making baseless accusations against EVMs.
- Immature Leadership and Foreign Toolkits: Today, a leader of the Gandhi-Nehru family who has crossed 56 years of age and is mentally and politically utterly immature considers himself a self-proclaimed claimant for the post of Prime Minister. Before pointing fingers at others, he should read and understand how much respect his maternal grandmother (Indira Gandhi) and maternal great-grandfather (Nehru) showed toward the Constitution and the mandate of the people.
- Politics of Spreading Confusion: These leaders, speaking like parrots repeating lines at the behest of foreign forces and toolkits, must remember that the people of the country are not fools to blindly trust their false rumors and fabricated stories. If this person had even an ounce of truth or substance, he would have stayed among the people of the country during times of crisis instead of fleeing abroad. His sole objective is to spread anarchy in the country and carve out a political base for himself through false narratives.
4. Association with Congress: A Guaranteed Ticket to Political Ruin
Across various states and eras of the country, it has been proven as an undeniable truth that whichever party or leader fell into the trap of Congress met absolute destruction:
- Uttar Pradesh (2017): In 2017, when Akhilesh Yadav joined hands with Congress and Rahul Gandhi, their entire alliance was directly thrown out of power.
- Maharashtra Politics: When regional forces like Sharad Pawar and Uddhav Thackeray associated with Rahul Gandhi in Maharashtra, they lost power and are today running from pillar to post to save their political ground.
- Bihar (2025): When Tejashwi Yadav fell into Rahul Gandhi’s labyrinth during the Bihar elections, his alliance could not even secure enough seats to claim the official position of Leader of Opposition (LOP) in the assembly.
- West Bengal (2026): In Bengal, Mamata Banerjee too fell for Rahul Gandhi’s vote-theft agenda and political coalition, causing massive damage to her governance and political grip.
- Uttar Pradesh (Expected 2027): Now, opportunistic and shortsighted political faces in UP are once again over-enthusiastically aligning with Rahul Gandhi, which ensures they are preparing to shrink their seat share even further in the 2027 elections.
5. Conclusion: Stay Vigilant, Save the Country
- Today, if anyone claims that the Modi government or the BJP has stolen votes, they must definitely be reminded of these dark pages and documents of Congress history.
- A party that has been embroiled in electoral manipulation, ballot box looting, and the assassination of democracy from its birth until today—handing over the country’s power to such a party means plunging India into economic ruin, anarchy, and devastation akin to Pakistan or Bangladesh.
- The conscious public of the country must now completely decide whether they want to move forward with the sentiment of nation-first or give an opportunity to those who run such opportunistic and anti-national narratives.
