Explain increase in voting percentage days after polling, SC tells EC
Friday, 17 May 2024 The Supreme Court on Friday sought the Election Commission's response to an appeal by the Association for Democratic Reforms, an NGO, expressing concern about the potential replacement of electronic voting equipment, citing a significant increase in final voting percentage statistics days after polling. On April 26, the SC had dismissed ADR's plea for return to ballot papers and its suspicion of EVMs.

The Maharashtra Assembly elections once again spotlighted the opposition’s habit of blaming EVMs when results don’t favor them. In Solapur's Markadwadi village, NCP(SP) supporters, upset over BJP’s Ram Satpute leading locally despite Uttamrao Jankar’s overall win, planned an illegal ballot “re-election.” Authorities rightly shut it down, calling it anti-democratic. Ironically, EVMs—introduced by Congress—are now their scapegoat. Locals dismissed the rhetoric, crediting Satpute’s development work, with one saying, “He earned his votes, no tampering needed.”
