As Congress trails everywhere, party workers stage protest blaming EVMs

After the Congress’ poor performance in all five states where Assembly elections were held, party workers staged a protest outside the party’s headquarters, alleging that democracy was being murdered through EVMs.

Delhi Congress leader Jagdish Sharma and some local workers raised slogans against the BJP holding placards that read: “EVM se ho rahi hai loktantra ki hatya (Democracy is being murdered through electronic voting machines)”.
