Rahul Gandhi, the head of the Congress, had a press conference following the results of the Lok Sabha election. Exit polls, in his opinion, are a swindle. He added that “people lost thirty lakh crore rupees in the stock market as a result of the election exit polls. Recognize its timeline. We saw that the finance minister, home minister, and prime minister made remarks about the stock market for the first time during the election. The finance and home ministers, as well as the prime minister, all predicted that the stock market would rise quickly. The market boomed as a result. It sank later. It’s a fraud, this. The Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) ought to look into it.”
Rahul Gandhi Alleges Stock Market Manipulation
Rahul Gandhi said, “confusion was spread on the stock market. The entire matter should be investigated by the JPC. Action should be taken against the companies conducting the exit polls. This is the biggest scam in the Indian stock market. This is the biggest scam in the Indian stock market. The entire matter is criminal. Investigation should be done and action should also be taken.” When he was asked whether he would go to court? On this, Rahul Gandhi said, “we are demanding a JPC inquiry. We will do whatever it takes.”
Stock Market Reaction and Alleged Scam Timeline
Rahul Gandhi said, “before the elections, BJP‘s internal survey was also giving them only 220 seats. That’s why confusion was spread through exit polls. After this, on June 3, the stock market broke the record and reached a great height. We are telling the public that a scam has happened here. The Prime Minister, Home Minister and Finance Minister are directly responsible for this.”
Questioned about what he would do if the government refused to allow a JPC investigation, Rahul Gandhi said, ” there would be a fierce opposition in the Parliament on this. They will have to pay attention to us this time. They will be forced to accede to JPC’s demand by the pressure we apply. The money of good people was put into the stock market.”
