Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday continued his blistering attack on the Election Commission of India, alleging that the election system in the country “is already dead" and the Lok Sabha polls last year were “rigged".

Without providing any evidence, Rahul claimed that he has “proof" of electoral malpractices.

His remarks came for the second straight day, even after the poll body described his allegations as “baseless" which are being made on a daily basis.

The Congress leader on Friday had attacked the ECI, accusing it of indulging in “vote theft" for the ruling BJP and issuing an “atom bomb" warning. “The things we found are an atom bomb. And when this atom bomb explodes, you won’t see the Election Commission in the country," he said yesterday, prompting a response from the ECI.

“Election Commission ignores such baseless allegations being made on a daily basis and, despite threats being given daily, asks all election officials to ignore such irresponsible statements while working impartially and transparently," the ECI said.

The Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition said that he will prove to the people of the country that he general elections were “rigged".

“We are going to prove to you in the coming few days how a Lok Sabha election can be rigged and was rigged," he said at the Annual Legal Conclave- 2025.

“The truth is that the election system in India is already dead. The Prime Minister of India is the Prime Minister of India with a very slim majority… If 15 seats were rigged, he would not have been the Prime Minister of India," he added.

He claimed that the Opposition will present proof in front of the country that the “institution of the Election Commission does not exist".

“It has disappeared. It has taken us 6 months of non-stop work to find this proof…You will see with zero doubt how a Lok Sabha election is stolen. 6.5 lakh voters vote and 1.5 lakh of those voters are fake," he said.
