West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Sunday alleged that the Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) personnel tried to “capture” electronic voting machines (EVMs) in the districts that went to polls in the first phase on April 23.

“I heard of two incidents in which power to two strong rooms where EVMs are kept were cut off. Central forces escorted criminals to those places to capture EVMs. The faces of these people were covered with blankets. I am surprised that the EC (Election Commission) is silent,” the Trinamool Congress (TMC) chief, who is seeking a fourth straight term as the chief minister, told voters and her supporters ata rally in her Bhabanipur seat in south Kolkata.
