  "account": "Congress leader Rahul Gandhi accused the BJP of electoral fraud during the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. In response, BJP senior leader Ravi Shankar Prasad challenged Gandhi to resign as an MP, given his claim that the same fraud occurred in that election as well. Prasad questioned whether other Congress MPs and the Congress government in Himachal Pradesh, as well as governments in Telangana and Karnataka, would follow Gandhi's lead and resign. He also criticized Gandhi's lack of research and understanding of facts. At a rally in Delhi, the opposition INDIA bloc demanded that the BJP be removed from power over the alleged vote rigging, with Gandhi claiming that Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar would be removed and sent to jail for treason, and that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah would not escape the law.",
