Lucknow. Before the counting of votes for the assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh, Samajwadi Party national president Akhilesh Yadav has accused the counting of irregularities. He has also described the prediction of victory of Bharatiya Janata Party in exit polls as a part of the same conspiracy. Akhilesh told a press conference in Lucknow on Tuesday evening that this is the last fight for democracy and now revolution will have to be done for change.
SP President Akhilesh Yadav has made serious allegations of EVM rigging on the BJP on Tuesday evening, ahead of the counting of votes on March 10. He said that EVMs and ballot papers have been seized in Varanasi, Bareilly and Sonbhadra. BJP is stealing votes through EVMs. Election commission should take strict action against Varanasi DM. A delegation of SP and its allies has submitted a memorandum to Additional Chief Electoral Officer BDR Tiwari demanding action in related matters.
Akhilesh Yadav said in a press conference that in the last elections, there are 47 seats where BJP won by a margin of less than five thousand. He said that one vehicle was caught in Varanasi while two vehicles have fled. He asked what is the reason why EVMs were being carried without security, even if necessary, candidates should have been informed earlier. He said that ‘I appeal to the youth and farmers that if you have voted, then it is also the responsibility of saving votes. There is resentment among those who believe in democracy. We have explained our workers to count the ballot vote. SP is winning Varanasi South and Ayodhya seat, this is the panic of BJP. I will ask SP workers to protect votes by following law and order. Fortify the counting centre.
The SP president claimed that his alliance would cross 300. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has wandered from street to street in fear of the alliance. District wise rallies. Akhilesh said that, ‘The Chief Secretary is calling the DMs from place to place and asking them to slow down the counting of votes where the BJP loses.’
On the exit poll, Akhilesh said that through this a perception of BJP winning is being created so that the theft of votes can be covered up. He said that this is the last battle of democracy. After that the people will have to make a revolution. He called upon everyone to save democracy. All the comrades stood at the centers till the counting of votes was over. Alleging rigging in the election, he said that three sealed boxes filled with ballot and seal were caught from the Municipal Corporation vehicle in Bareilly. Now the officials are making excuses for the EVMs being caught.
BJP is scared of our alliance: Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party chief Om Prakash Rajbhar said that BJP is scared of our alliance. BJP is manipulating EVMs. Our people are alert, have fortified the counting site. The trend of 10 o’clock on March 10 will tell that the government of the SP alliance is going to be formed in the state.
