Assam EVM row | 'Truth revealed in EC enquiry, BJP not involved': Baijayant Panda

BJP leader Baijayant Jay Panda spoke on the EMV controversy in poll-bound Assam.

He said that the truth on the incident involving an EVM in Karimganj had been revealed in the enquiry by the Election Commission.

“There is absolutely no involvement of BJP and any political motive,” Panda said.

He claimed that an official vehicle broke down, so they were offered help by another vehicle.

A video surfaced on social media purportedly showing EVM in a BJP candidate’s car.

The incident took place following the second phase of polling in Assam on April 1.

Election Commission has suspended four officials including the presiding officer in the matter.
