Rahul Gandhi PC: Will Rahul explode a hydrogen bomb over vote theft? Press conference today

Rahul Gandhi PC: Congress leader and Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, has been repeatedly targeting the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) by raising the issue of vote theft. His sharp rhetoric on this issue has heated up the political atmosphere. His press conference, scheduled for Thursday at 10 a.m. at the Indira Bhawan auditorium in New Delhi, is expected to make major revelations on this issue. Recently, at the conclusion of his "Voter Rights Yatra" in Patna, Bihar, Rahul Gandhi stated that his party would soon detonate a "hydrogen bomb" on the issue of vote theft. In this article, we will discuss this press conference and its potential implications.

The Issue of Vote Theft

Rahul Gandhi has described vote theft not only as a matter of malpractice in the electoral process but also linked it to the theft of democracy, rights, reservation, employment, education, and the future of the youth. At an event held in Patna, Bihar on September 1, he said, "Vote theft means taking away your land and your ration card and giving it to Adani and Ambani." He accused the BJP of working against the Constitution and said his party was committed to stopping it.

Using symbolic terms like "atom bomb" and "hydrogen bomb" in his speech, he said, "A hydrogen bomb is bigger than an atom bomb. BJP people, get ready, the hydrogen bomb is coming. After this, PM Narendra Modi will not be able to face the country." This statement has created a stir in political circles and increased curiosity about Thursday's press conference.

Press Conference Details

Congress media and publicity department chief Pawan Khera announced on social media that Rahul Gandhi will hold a press conference at 10 am on Thursday, September 18, 2025, at the Indira Bhawan auditorium in New Delhi. While it is not yet clear what issues he will discuss at the conference, it is believed that the issue of vote theft will be at the center.

Rahul Gandhi's last press conference was held on August 7, 2025, where he presented an analysis of the 2024 general election data for a Lok Sabha seat in Karnataka. He alleged that the Election Commission and the BJP were colluding to steal votes, which he termed a crime against the Constitution.

Rahul Gandhi's Statement in Bihar

During his 'Voter Rights Yatra' in Bihar, Rahul Gandhi launched a scathing attack on vote theft. He said, "The power that killed Mahatma Gandhi is now trying to kill the Constitution. We will not allow this to happen." Referring to the youth and children of Bihar, he said that people came near his jeep and shouted slogans like "Vote thief, leave the throne." He also mentioned BJP workers showing black flags during the meeting.

Letter to the PM

In addition to the issue of vote theft, Rahul Gandhi recently wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi demanding a speedy assessment of the damage caused by the floods in Punjab and a comprehensive relief package for the affected people. This letter, written on Wednesday, clearly demonstrates his activism and strategy to corner the government on various issues.

Potential Impact

Rahul Gandhi's press conference has sparked considerable speculation in political circles. If he makes any major revelations on the issue of vote theft, it could raise questions about the fairness of the 2024 general elections. His "hydrogen bomb" statement has already put the BJP on the back foot, and this press conference could provide a new issue for the opposition. Furthermore, it could further strengthen the Congress's strategy, especially in states where assembly elections are due soon.
