Hamirpur (HP), May 30 (PTI) The Congress has already conceded defeat in the Lok Sabha polls and is preparing to blame electronic voting machines and the Election Commission, Union minister and BJP's Hamirpur candidate Anurag Thakur claimed on Thursday.
Speaking at a public meeting here, he alleged that Congress' anti-national policies have garnered support not from India but from Pakistan and foreign powers may have hopes pinned on the party.
However, people in India will never hand over the country to them, he added.
Thakur said that this is the same party that indulges in corruption even in military purchases, seeks to weaken the army, questions its might, and fails to take action against Pakistan even after the capture of a terrorist like Kasab.

"The Congress has lost its credibility among the people, leading to frustration and disappointment among its leaders...and conceding defeat, it is preparing to blame EVMs, the Election Commission, and other factors," he said.
He remarked that despite Uttar Pradesh having produced many prime ministers from the Congress party, the people were still compelled to live in slums, even in Raebareli and Amethi.
However, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh is now on the path to progress. Today, Adityanath has transformed UP into a state free of crime, mafia, and riots.
Workers from the entire Himachal, including the Hamirpur Lok Sabha constituency, are feeling highly motivated and energetic following the UP CM's address, he said.
Adityanath had addressed two rallies in Kullu and Hamirpur on Thursday to garner support for BJP's Mandi candidate Kangana Ranaut and Thakur.
