INDIA Bloc To Approach Supreme Court Over Alleged EVM Manipulation
The Opposition INDIA bloc plans to go to the Supreme Court, alleging manipulation of Electronic Voting Machines during the recent assembly election in Maharashtra. The decision was made at a meeting this evening between veteran political leader Sharad Pawar and Delhi's former Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal.
The Opposition, including Mr Pawar's party, has sustained heavy losses in Maharashtra and with the approaching assembly election in Delhi the need was felt for some advance planning in this regard, sources indicated.
Mr Kejriwal's AAP has swept the last two assembly elections in Delhi, but this time, the BJP is hoping for better performance in view of the corruption allegations against the leaders of the ruling party including Mr Kejriwal.
