Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Thursday claimed that the youth of the country--particularly students and Gen-Z--will play a decisive role in safeguarding the Constitution.
Taking to his official handle on X, he wrote, "The youth of the country, the students of the country, the Gen Z of the country, will save the Constitution, protect democracy, and stop vote theft. I always stand with them."
<blockquote>देश के Yuva 
देश के Students 
देश की Gen Z 
संविधान को बचाएंगे, लोकतंत्र की रक्षा करेंगे और वोट चोरी को रोकेंगे।
मैं उनके साथ हमेशा खड़ा हूं।

The move was widely viewed as an attempt to silence political dissent and eventually led to Oli’s resignation.

<h2>Karnataka CEO responds to Gandhi's allegations</h2>
Meanwhile, the Chief Election Officer (CEO) of Karnataka responded to Rahul Gandhi’s allegations of voter deletions, stating that all incorrect applications had been rejected and an FIR was filed in 2023.
According to the statement, the ERO in Aland received 6,018 Form 7 applications in December 2022 through apps such as NVSP, VHA, and GARUDA. Upon verification, only 24 were found to be genuine, while 5,994 were deemed incorrect and rejected.
The Karnataka CEO further clarified that an FIR was lodged with the Inspector of Police, Aland Police Station, in February 2023, and the matter was handed over to the Superintendent of Police, Kalaburagi district, in September 2023 for further investigation.
<h2>Rahul Gandhi’s allegations of 'vote chori'</h2>
Earlier in August, Gandhi alleged that he had uncovered a “massive voter deletion scam” targeting millions of voters across India. However, he stopped short of releasing the promised “hydrogen bomb” of evidence, giving Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar a one-week deadline to respond.
Referring to the Aland case, Gandhi said: “We don't know the total number of votes that were deleted in Aland… It is much higher than 6,018. But somebody got caught. And it was caught like most crimes, by a coincidence.”
He further alleged that deletion attempts were concentrated in booths where the Congress was winning, citing the case of a woman named Godabai. Gandhi said someone created fake logins in her name to attempt deleting 12 voters. “Godabai has no idea,” he added.
<h2>ECI dismisses claims as 'baseless'</h2>
The Election Commission of India strongly refuted Gandhi’s allegations, calling them “incorrect and baseless.” It stressed: “No deletion of any vote can be done online by any member of the public, as misconceived by Shri Rahul Gandhi.”
