Clear Collusion in Bihar: Gehlot Slams EC Over Vote Theft Charge

"The assembly results are disappointing. It seems to me that the payments of Rs 10,000 to women were continuing even when the election campaign was on; such a thing never happens. In Bihar, the Election Commission remained a mute spectator. Why did it not stop this? It did not intervene at all. When you do not ensure fair elections, when booth capturing or dishonesty takes place, and the Election Commission takes no action, that is vote theft. There was clear collusion with the ruling party," said senior Congress leader Ashok Gehlot.
