BJP Alleges Nehru Sidelined Patel to Become PM Amid Congress Mock Impeachment
BJP leaders, including Sambit Patra and Ravi Shankar Prasad, accused Jawaharlal Nehru of allegedly sidelining Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel through 'vote theft' to become India's first Prime Minister. These remarks came amid the Congress-led INDIA bloc's mock public impeachment of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, which BJP criticized as political theatrics undermining democratic institutions. Congress leaders, including Mallikarjun Kharge, have questioned the Election Commission's credibility, while BJP defended the electoral process and challenged opposition allegations.
