BJP spokesperson and Lok Sabha MP Sambit Patra Wednesday hit out at Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge for saying on Structure Day that poll papers ought to return. Patra reminded him {that a} day earlier, the Supreme Courtroom had noticed that candidates who lose elections cry foul over EVMs.
“Mallikarjunji, you don’t need EVMs, judiciary, Election Fee, ED, CBI and authorities of India. So, the suitable place for you is Mars, the place none of those exist,” Patra stated, including, “He stated that EVMs are making the votes of OBCs, SCs and STs go to waste. Does he imply that simply because they’re SC, ST and OBC, they don’t know the place to press the button? That is an insult to them.”
Taking a dig at Kharge for saying that EVMs ought to be saved at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home, Patra stated, “Modiji already has an EVM at his home – E for power, V for vikas (improvement) and M for mehnat (onerous work). Sure, we’re successful due to this EVM and you might be shedding due to RBM – Rahul’s bekaar (dangerous) administration. The issue will not be with the machine, however along with your management. You’ll want to substitute Rahul and never EVM.”
“The second Khargeji stated what he did, the Supreme Courtroom was listening to a petition towards EVMs. Each judges listening to the case stated that suspicion of EVM fixing is unfounded. They added that these candidates who lose cry foul over EVMs. This can be a story of grapes gone bitter,” Patra stated.
Patra underlined that when the EC had challenged all political events for a hackathon in 2017 to show that EVMs could possibly be hacked, nobody turned up.
“You have been so pleased with 99 seats (within the Lok Sabha). At the moment every part was tremendous. While you win a state, you say nothing about EVM. Do you imply to say JMM additionally received by tampering with EVMs? That isn’t alliance dharma,” Patra stated. “Congress employees know that Rahul can’t win, however they will’t say it. So they are saying EVMs are dangerous. Rajiv Gandhi had spoken towards poll papers when BJP received 86 seats. One thing is incorrect, he had stated. The daddy stated poll papers are dangerous, the son says EVMs are dangerous. Do they need monarchy to return and that they be made to put on the crown and sit on a throne?”
