BJP’s Tarun Chugh hails Supreme Court’s verdict on EVMs

Chandigarh, Nov 26: BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh today welcomed the decision of the Supreme Court dismissing a PIL seeking the reintroduction of the paper ballot system in elections in India.

The apex Court rejected the petitioner’s claims of EVM tampering and also pointed out the inconsistency of politicians who question the credibility of EVMs only after losing elections.

Chugh said the frustration of the opposition parties in face of electoral defeat at the hands of the BJP has been decisively nailed.

He hailed the observation of the Supreme Court which said that EVMs are not tampered with when one wins elections. EVMs are tampered with only when one loses elections, he added.
