“Mamata, Rahul and Tejashwi are the biggest supporters of infiltrators—engaging in politics against national interest” – Energy Minister Anil Vij

“Rahul Gandhi keeps making excuses even after failing, just like children who fail exams invent excuses” – Anil Vij

The noise of rigging in the Bihar elections is completely baseless—people like Prashant Kishor are making statements without any evidence – Vij


Chandigarh, 21 November – Haryana’s Energy, Transport and Labour Minister, Sh. Anil Vij launched a sharp attack on the Opposition, saying, “TMC leader Mamata Banerjee, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav have become the biggest leaders of infiltrators. They advocate for infiltrators, want to get their ration cards and voter cards made. This is not in the interest of the nation; in fact, this is entirely anti-national.”

Sh. Vij was responding to questions asked by the media personnel today.

Commenting on Congress's Delhi meeting, where Rahul Gandhi raised issues like SIR despite facing defeat in the elections, Sh.Vij said that “When a child fails an exam, he never accepts that he is not capable. He says the chair was broken, or his ink spilled, or his pen broke. Rahul Gandhi too keeps looking for excuses in the same way.”

Responding to Opposition allegations of rigging in the Bihar elections, Sh. Vij said that “Unless polling agents themselves give a written complaint, statements made or written by outsiders cannot prove any rigging. This is merely an unsuccessful attempt to create a false narrative.”

On Prashant Kishor’s statement that “democracy was wronged in Bihar,” Sh.Vij said that “What credibility does Prashant Kishor have? He did not win a single seat, nor did anyone from his party win. Now such people are delivering speeches on national politics. They should leave politics and take up some other work.”

On the statement made by Punjab Congress leader Raja Vading—“Vote Chor-Gaddi Chod”—the Minister countered and said that“First find out who makes the fake votes and who benefits from them. If this actually happened, why didn’t their polling agents raise objections? What action have these parties taken against their agents? The truth is they are the real experts in fake voting. Even Indira Gandhi lost her election petition due to fake votes—Justice J.L.M. Sinha had annulled her seat. This is their family tradition.”

Reacting to Congress holding a zonal meeting in Ambala, Sh.Vij said that “It is good that they are doing the daily exercises of their party. Why would we object?”
