Allegations Against Congress Party

Rajbhar accused the Congress party of a long history of voter fraud. He claimed the party first stole votes to make Jawaharlal Nehru prime minister, and later to ensure the defeat of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar in the 1952 elections. He alleged that the Congress had expertise in manipulating elections, citing an instance in Varanasi where a ballot box was allegedly thrown into the Ganges.

Panchayat Election Reforms

In addition to his political commentary, Rajbhar spoke about his efforts to reform the three-tier panchayat election system. He stated that the government is considering changes to the reservation system for panchayat elections and that he has held discussions with the CM and PM about the possibility of direct elections for district panchayat chairpersons and block chiefs. He said that a positive outcome is expected from these discussions.
