Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’ Fails to Deliver as Congress Faces Drubbing, Leading in Just Four Seats

The Bihar Assembly election results mark a major setback for the Congress party, which is leading in only four seats out of the 61 it contested, suggesting that Rahul Gandhi’s 1,300 km ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’ failed to resonate with voters; the results also indicate that Gandhi’s central charge of “vote theft” against the BJP and Election Commission was largely ignored by the electorate, with the NDA securing a decisive victory driven by strong performances from the BJP (91 leads) and JD(U) (80 leads).
