Rajnath Singh slams Rahul Gandhi’s poll rigging claim in Bihar

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday slammed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for claiming to have an “atom bomb of evidence” which would prove that the Election Commission was committing “vote theft” in Bihar.

Addressing a function organised by a media house in the state capital, Singh also likened the upcoming assembly polls to a crossroad, “with one path (under NDA) leading to further progress and another (under the INDIA bloc) taking Bihar back to



its old era of lawlessness and caste strife”.

“Rahul Gandhi says he is in possession of an atom bomb. If it is so, he should detonate it at once. He should just ensure that he is himself out of harm’s way”, said the former BJP president, tongue in cheek.

Singh added that the nation remembers his past rhetorics.”He had threatened Parliament of an earthquake, but when he spoke, it turned out to be a damp squib,” the BJP leader said.
