Move to pass resolution against EVMs fails to pass muster

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 19 December 2023
The move to pass a no-confidence vote in Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) by the INDIA bloc failed. Congress leaders blamed their defeat on EVMs, but the resolution to reject the machines did not gain support. Instead, the alliance suggested using voter-verifiable paper audit trail (VVPAT) and conducting 100% counting of VVPAT slips to ensure fair elections. Nitish Kumar and Jayant Chaudhary supported this approach, while RJD called for expanding VVPAT to cover all constituencies.

Pappu Yadav's decision to file nomination from Purnia, despite objections from RJD, raises questions about NDA's electoral strategy.
