Hyderabad, Dec.27 (Maxim News): A team of Congress leaders with former MLA P Vishnuvardhan Reddy today urged the Election Commission to cancel the Assembly polls in Jubilee Hills and conduct fresh polls as EVMs and VVPATS were tampered with at the behest of the ruling party. Vishnuvardhan Reddy and Convenor of Telangana Congress Election Co-ordination Committee Niranjan submitted a memorandum at CEO Rajat Kumar office and complained tampering of VVPATS and sought fresh polls.
The TRS candidate influenced the concerned officials to tamper and broke the seals of VVPAT’s and to remove the slips from the box to destroy the evidence they alleged. They charged that the EVMs and VVPAT’s of his Constituency shifted to Hyderabad district permanent warehouse in Chudi Bazar without any information to the candidates in fray. They came to know that EVM-VVPATs were without seals brought to godown from counting centres and there was no security.
They said that representative of political parties were invited by the DEO for their presence at sealing of EVM VVPATS strong room at GHMC ware house at Chudibazar on December 24. Though DEO asked the officials failed to seal the VVPATs they charged. We will move High Court seeking justice to count VVPAT slips they said. (Maxim News)
