He added that they are after the people behind what Kumar did and the Opposition might even forgive him.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday asked chief election commissioner Gyanesh Kumar to resign and become an approver, claiming he is not the “main vote-theft criminal”. Gandhi said the protests against Kumar will continue and the deployment of heavy security forces and crackdown on protesters proves how the government is trying to protect him.
“Turn approver. You have committed a crime, and frankly you are not the main criminal. You have made a mistake. You are not the mind behind the mistake. “It is very easy for you. Resign and get out of the way. No problem. We know you have been forced by PM [Prime Minister Narendra Modi], home minister [Amit Shah], [National Security Advisor] Ajit Doval, and Mr Adani.”
Because that will be a service to the nation and the Constitution, we might even forgive you.
We are after the people who are behind what you did,” said Gandhi when asked for his advice to Kumar.
“There are no parallel protests. He added the CJI asked them to file a petition to start a legal process. “We are going to the Supreme Court, and we will file a petition together.

The proof of vote chori is known to the whole country. “Then we tried to go to Jantar Mantar, a place for public protest, but we were again stopped.
After the 45-minute meeting with Murmu, Gandhi claimed that the President did not refute their charges.
Gandhi said all protests are one. “We do not care who you are,” Gandhi said. We said PM, Amit Shah, and Gyanesh Kumar have conspired to destroy democracy. She accepted our statement and said we need to bring her proof of election theft. Gandhi said members of Parliament tried to meet Kumar, but were detained.

Gandhi said 24 elections have been stolen, and yet the President sought proof. “The same group of people will happily take the proof to her. The main thing is that I actually expected the President to deny that vote chori is taking place.
