If Rahul Gandhi is not getting any success after INDIA bloc formation is it fault of EVMs?: JDU leader Neeraj Kumar
Janata Dal (United) leader Neeraj Kumar questioned Rahul Gandhi's criticism of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), pointing out that the Supreme Court had not raised any issues with EVMs. He also questioned Gandhi's alliance with "corrupt dynastic ...

"Rahul Gandhi, after winning from Wayanad, Raebareli and getting the mandate by the people to sit in opposition is now raising questions on EVMs. He indirectly doubts the impartiality of the Election Commission. Whereas the Supreme Court did not raise any question on the usefulness of EVM machines. So what are you pained about? The INDI alliance, the gathering of corrupt dynastic politics that you made and today, because of that, if you are facing a political plight, then are EVMs responsible for it?"
He further asked if the EVMs were faulty, then how did INDIA bloc win 233 seats in Lok Sabha.
"The question arises that if the EVMs are faulty, then how did they win 233 seats in Lok Sabha polls? When the Supreme Court did not raise any objections on EVMs then are you above the courts? To raise doubts about the conduct of the Election Commission shows that they are extremely rattled," he added.
Earlier, labelling EVM's as "black box" Rahul Gandhi said that nobody is allowed to scrutinise them.
"EVMs in India are a "black box," and nobody is allowed to scrutinise them. Serious concerns are being raised about transparency in our electoral process. Democracy ends up becoming a sham and prone to fraud when institutions lack accountability," the tweet read.
