New Delhi | The Annual Legal Conclave 2025, organised by the AICC Law, Human Rights & RTI Department, was held today at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi. The theme for this year’s conclave was “Constitutional Challenges: Perspectives & Pathways.”

Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha and Congress leader Shri Rahul Gandhi addressed the gathering, which included many senior lawyers, legal experts, and political leaders from across the country.

In his speech, Rahul Gandhi said, “The Constitution is our strength. It gives every citizen the courage to live with dignity and fight for their rights. We must protect this strength, stop injustice, defeat hatred, and save our nation.”

Rahul Gandhi described the Congress party as a symbol of bravery, truth and non-violence.

“What is Congress? It is the courage to stand for the truth without anger. This is what Congress represents, and BJP is the exact opposite,” he said.

Rahul Gandhi made a strong allegation that Lok Sabha elections were manipulated.

“Out of 6.5 lakh voters, we found 1.5 lakh fake voters. We have physical documents from the Election Commission. The election system in India is dead,” he stated.

He claimed that the Prime Minister is in office with a thin and doubtful majority, alleging that 70 to 100 seats may have been rigged.

“If 15 seats weren’t rigged, he wouldn’t be Prime Minister today,” Rahul said, promising to present solid proof to the public.

Rahul Gandhi expressed concern over the weakening of democratic institutions. “The institution that protects our Constitution has been taken over. I have 100% proof. Everyone I’ve shown it to was shocked. Only the legal community can now fight this battle in the courts,” he told the audience of lawyers.

His emotional and bold appeal added urgency to the ongoing debate on justice, rights, and the future of democratic institutions.
