Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and former AICC chief Rahul Gandhi held a meeting on Sunday with the party's Lok Sabha candidates, legislative party leaders and state unit chiefs via video conferencing, and urged them to be alert and put in place measures to check any attempts of rigging on poll counting day, sources said.
Speaking to reporters while exiting the meeting, Rahul slammed the exit polls predicting the NDA win guided by Narendra Modi saying the exit polls are not media exit polls but Modi exit polls and Modi's fantasy exit polls.
On being questioned about the number of seats being won by the INDIA bloc, Gandhi invoked slain Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala's song '295', indicating that the alliance would surpass the majority mark.
Meanwhile, leaders of several INDIA bloc parties had also met in New Delhi on Saturday and took stock of the opposition's preparations leading up to the June 4 counting of votes polled in the Lok Sabha elections, and asserted they will get more than 295 seats, enough for them to form the next government.
