Jammu:DD, Dr. Pardeep Mahotra, Media Incharge of J&K BJP, launched a scathing attack on the Congress-led opposition, accusing them of shielding fake voters to regain power through illegitimate means.
He said that it has long been the Congress party’s habit to resort to every odd and illegal tactic to capture and retain power.
Comparing Congress’s tactics with the development-oriented and transparent governance of the Modi Government, Dr. Pardeep said the BJP stands for national integrity, while the opposition thrives on manipulation and fraud.
He particularly pointed to the recent electoral roll revision exercise in Bihar, which, he said, has once again exposed the dangerous nexus between illegal immigration and vote-bank politics pursued by Congress and its allies under the INDI Alliance.
“The discovery of lakhs of bogus entries including deceased individuals, migrants without valid citizenship, and forged identities is not a clerical error. It is a calculated attack on Indian democracy,” he asserted.
Dr. Pardeep criticized the opposition for crying foul over the clean-up drive and branding it “discriminatory” and “anti-minority”. “The truth is simple,” he said, “they are defending vote banks created through years of manipulation.”
He further accused Congress and its allies of consistently stalling border security efforts in states like West Bengal, Assam, and across the Northeast, citing their role in delaying fencing and sheltering illegal settlements in a desperate bid to secure votes.
In contrast, Dr. Pardeep highlighted the Modi Government’s initiatives such as NRC in Assam, digitization of surveillance under CIBMS, dismantling fake document rackets, and speeding up border fencing. These are not just reforms but acts of democratic defense, he stated.
Dr. Pardeep Mahotra further added that the Congress party has long treated power as an entitlement, not a responsibility, building ecosystems of corruption and fraud now being dismantled by transparency and accountability. Their opposition to the voter rolls revision is not about protecting citizens it is about protecting a corrupt system that benefits them.
“The BJP under PM Modi is committed to clean, transparent, and accountable governance. Cleaning the electoral roll is not just good governance, it is a constitutional necessity,” said Dr. Pardeep, “Those who oppose it are opposing the very idea of India.”
