Breaking News: Modi Has Been Arrested


In a twist worthy of political theatre, Narendra Modi has been “arrested” not by the police, but by Rahul Gandhi’s August 7 disclosure of alleged voter fraud. The evidence? Straight from the Election Commission of India (ECI) itself. The sentence? Living in the constant fear that the jig is finally up.

Rahul didn’t conjure numbers from thin air, nor rely on WhatsApp forwards. He presented raw, official ECI data the very institution now demanding that he take an oath to swear his allegations are true. Irony died quietly in the corner. If anyone should be under oath, it’s the ECI, swearing that the data Rahul presented isn’t theirs. But they won’t, because it is.

For a man who claims to be incorruptible, Modi’s response has been suspiciously… absent. An innocent leader, wrongly accused, might roar back, demand the ECI open its books, and challenge Rahul to a head-to-head data duel. Modi? Not so much. Silence. Strategic travel schedules. The occasional photo-op with foreign leaders. Anything but facing Rahul in Parliament.

The pattern isn’t new. When Rahul cornered Modi on the Adani affair years ago, the PM allegedly tried to have him jailed. That plan fizzled because Rahul isn’t Kejriwal. He’s political royalty: son, grandson, and great-grandson of former Prime Ministers. The system knows better than to frame him on flimsy charges. History has a long memory, and dynasties have a longer reach.

Now, Rahul has gone beyond political jabs. He’s arrived with what he calls airtight proof of vote manufacturing in Modi’s favor and mass deletion of opposition votes. Modi, by contrast, has been keeping his distance physically, politically, and geographically. In Parliament, he avoids Rahul like a man who’s just spotted his ex holding the receipts. Abroad, he racks up air miles like an escape artist perfecting his act.

Even the usually friendly press can’t get a proper soundbite out of him. The risk? That someone slips in a question like:

“Prime Minister, how did you go from losing your seat at 3 p.m. to winning it after a convenient power outage?”

Or worse:

“Sir, how do you explain Nitin Gadkari’s claim that 3.5 lakh votes were purged in Maharashtra including some belonging to his own relatives?”

Advice to Modi? Keep the microphones far, far away. If you must speak in public, stay at least a cricket pitch’s length from any journalist with a functioning brain. And remember: no one can ask awkward questions if you’re 35,000 feet in the air.

So yes Modi has been arrested by Rahul Gandhi. Not in a police station, but in the court of public opinion, shackled by evidence and shadowed by guilt. And the key to that cell? It’s in the ECI’s pocket right next to the data they now pretend not to know.
