|December 24, 2024
THE BJD on Monday alleged huge discrepancies in the voting and counting process in the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections earlier this year, and urged the Election Commission of India (ECI) to clarify on the issue.
A delegation led by former Rajya Sabha MP Amar Patnaik and Rajya Sabha members Sasmit Patra and Sulata Deo submitted a memorandum to the ECI in this regard at New Delhi on Monday.
Addressing a media conference, the BJD leaders said the party has pointed out three major discrepancies. The first was the difference in votes polled in a booth as shown in 17(C) form and the total number of votes in the EVM for the same booth as mentioned in form 20 filled up by the returning officer after counting.
