Leaders of the Congress, after the party’s huge setback in Haryana, met the Election Commission this evening and registered a strong complaint, alleging that Electronic Voting Machines have been hacked. Party spokesman Pawan Khera said the hacking took place across 20 seats, for seven of which they have submitted documentary evidence. The papers for the other 13 will be submitted within 48 hours, he said.
‘We have requested that all the machines be sealed and secured till investigations are completed," Mr Khera told reporters. The party, he said, has submitted evidence of hacking at Karnal, Dabwali, Rewari, Panipat City, Hodal, Kalka and Narnaul.
"Counting of votes in a fair, transparent and accountable manner is the hallmark of any electoral process that claims to be in consonance with the principles of free and fair elections and the doctrine of the level-playing field as envisaged by the Constitution," the party memorandum to the EC said.
"It is a shocking result. Everyone said Congress will form government," said former Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, who was the face of Congress campaign and the party’s Chief Ministerial candidate.
