Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh’s chief minister, launched a scathing criticism against opposition leaders on Saturday, accusing them of attempting to shift responsibility for their electoral defeats onto Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs).
Addressing the press, Adityanath declared, “The people who are rejecting EVMs today are the same people who used to loot ballots.”
He asserted that the Congress, the Samajwadi Party, and other parties within the INDIA bloc had a track record of resorting to deceitful methods to secure electoral victories.
“Whenever Congress, Samajwadi Party, or any other party associated with the INDI alliance is losing elections, they make every effort to blame the defeat on EVMs. This is not the first time, we have been hearing this continuously since 2014”.
