Insulting people’s mandate is Congress’ old habit: BJP
Senior BJP leader Shivraj Chouhan criticised Congress leader Rahul Kharge for allegedly disparaging the electorate’s mandate and for questioning constitutional bodies. He said insulting the people’s mandate is a recurring habit of the opposition that undermines democratic norms. Chouhan defended the existing procedure for appointing Election Commissioners and asserted the integrity of electronic voting machines, stating these institutions remain reliable.
