New Delhi: A day after the Aam Admi Party alleged breach of security of Electronic Voting Machines (EVM) in Punjab, the Election Commission (EC) today decided to send a team to state to review the security arrangements.
Chief Electoral Officer, Himachal Pradesh, Narendra Chauhan and Delhi Additional Chief Electoral Officer Rajesh Kumar will visit select constituencies.
They have been directed to interact with political parties and take note of their concerns. They will also go through the CCTV footage and log books maintained at strong rooms.
AAP had alleged that there have been "multiple instances of breach in EVMs' safety" in the state, where the party is hopeful of forming government.
