Prashant Jagdev, BJP candidate from Odisha’s Khurda, was arrested for allegedly vandalising an electronic voting machine. The incident happened on Saturday in the Begunia assembly segment where he is registered as a voter. Jagdev had to wait for some time to cast his vote as the EVM malfunctioned. Soon, a war of words broke out between him and the presiding officer, during which he allegedly pulled the EVM from the table, as a result of which it fell and broke.
