Srinagar | PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti hit out at the Modi government over the alleged unauthorized movement of EVMs, two days before the result of the counting on May 23.
“Worrying that despite solid evidence about EVMs being switched, Election Commission hasn’t clarified any of these concerns. A farcical wave backed by dubious exit polls followed by manipulating EVMs is another Balakot in the making”, the former CM of Jammu and Kashmir wrote on Twitter.

Since a few hours, numerous videos have been doing rounds on social media which show the EVM machines being moved in the back of a truck to somewhere else from the strong room.
Over the uproar by the opposition, the EC dismissed the claims, calling them “baseless”.
The Exit Polls were released on Sunday which predicted another win for the BJP-led NDA government, presuming 300+ seats in the 535 member Lok Sabha assembly.
