EVM is the winner, says former CEC Gopalaswami

New Delhi, Dec 18: Amid intense debate on the efficacy of the Electronic Voting Machines and allegations that the machines could be tampered with, former Chief Election Commissioner N Gopalaswami on Monday said EVM is the "winner" in these polls.

"You are failing to see one winner already. That is the EVM," Mr Gopalaswami told Times Now.
He said irrespective of their political affiliations, the political leaders have always shown a trend to blame the EVM whenever they are on the losing side.
"This happened in 2009, this has happened now and this may happen in future," he said.
In the run-up to the elections in Gujarat, the Congress party and even political players like Hardik Patil have expressed apprehension that EVMs could be tampered with to suit the BJP.
Meanwhile, Twitteratis also reacted sharply on the issue with some net savvy citizens tweeting,
"EVM sweeps election". UNI
