BJP workers will not allow anarchy in the name of democracy, says BJP national secretary; accuses Congress of spreading misinformation over SIR; questions timing of November 1 rally in Delhi

Rohtak, October 29, 2026: BJP national secretary Om Prakash Dhankhar on Thursday accused the Congress of spreading misinformation over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and targeting constitutional institutions following repeated electoral defeats.

Addressing a public intellectuals’ meeting on “Save Democracy, Remove Anarchy” at the District Development Bhawan here, Dhankhar said every BJP worker was a “sentinel of democracy” and would not allow anarchy in the name of democratic protest.

He was talking to media persons after the meeting. Responding to Congress’s allegations over voter deletions, Dhankhar claimed that the exercise had identified duplicate entries, deceased voters and allegedly fraudulent registrations. Citing figures, he claimed that 6.3 crore entries were duplicated, 2.8 crore voters were deceased and three crore entries related to illegal Bangladeshi immigrants. He alleged that Congress was misleading people by claiming that 13 crore votes had been deleted.

Dhankhar maintained that electoral roll revision was not a new exercise and claimed it had been conducted 12 times, including 10 times during Congress rule. He accused Rahul Gandhi and Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge of crossing political boundaries through their remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and constitutional functionaries.

               Recalling the Emergency, he said the Congress, which had curtailed democratic freedoms in the past, had no moral authority to lecture others on democracy. He also criticised Rahul Gandhi’s statements against the Prime Minister, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.

Questioning the timing of the Congress rally scheduled in Delhi on November 1, BJP national secretary said the event could affect traders during the crucial Diwali business season. He claimed that the proposed rally had triggered resentment among sections of the trading community in Delhi and neighbouring areas.

Emphasising that peaceful protest was a democratic right; he said demonstrations must remain within constitutional limits. He asserted that the nation came first for BJP workers and accused the Congress of attempting to create disorder by questioning autonomous institutions.

He also raised questions about Sonia Gandhi’s citizenship and the timing of her name’s inclusion in electoral rolls, accusing the Congress of double standards on electoral integrity.

Several BJP leaders and office-bearers attended the meeting, including state media co-in-charge Shamsher Singh Khark, district president Ranvir Dhaka, general secretary Nitin Jain, along with other party functionaries.
