Mangaluru: Ramanath Rai expresses doubts over EVM, to raise objection with EC


Daijiworld Media Network – Mangaluru

Mangaluru, May 15: Seven out of the 8 contestants from Congress party in Dakshina Kannada district have decided to file an objection before the Election Commissioner against the electronic voting machines (EVMs) used in the just concluded elections.

Congress has lost in 7 out of the 8 seats it contested in the elections held on May 12, results of which were announced on May 15.

The contestants in the leadership of Ramanatha Rai decided to approach the Election Commission (EC) on Wednesday, May 16 with the complaint.

Speaking to reporters, Ramanath Rai said, "People have given their verdict but we have suspicions about the EVMs. At the time of counting we found some problems with it and we are filing complaint about it through a letter to the EC."

Asked about the results he said it was unexpected. "Everyone has seen the amount of work Congress has done for the people. They used IT raids on us to stop us from doing election work. In my 40 years in politics I have never seen such things happening. Even when Congress was ruling, such tactics were never used against opponents. This kind of systemic targetting is detrimental to democracy.

"In a democratic country we should respect the verdict of the people. Actually this is not a defeat, people wanted to give opportunity to another person because as per them, he is more efficient than me. There is no Modi wave. Modi effect is only applicable for Lok Sabha elections. Modi is not going to be the chief minister. 

Rai, on behalf of the contestants, said that Congress had hopes to win in all the 8 constituencies it contested. He said due to faulty EVMs they lost in 7 constituencies.

Rai made the statement at the counting centre at Bondel. He was accompanied by Mohiuddin Bava and J R Lobo.

    EVMs can be tampered remotely.

Can someone explain why they didn't tamper UTKhaders constituency evm...had they did there would havebeen big doubt..so evms can be tampered.. If developed countries like Germany and France have rejected evms and go for ballot why cant we too do the same.

    Well, you are desperately trying to prove something here. Connecting Israel's spyware to put centrifuges out of control and EVMs. You need to explain how. These are stand alone machines not connected to the net at the time of voting. How can they be tampered without having some communication access? Unless you provide that information, you are merely speculating. There is a law for such speculators.
    BJP is short of majority. They certainly did not do themselves a favor by tampering EVMs only enough to get them 104 seats instead of 112 seats.

    The results were almost in line with the exit polls and previous polls. The reason for Congress defeat are more than likely due to (a) Lingayat religion creation just before elections which sent wrong message even to Lingayats, (b) celebrating Tippu Jayanti and (c) there was no strong overall development in many parts of the state. Sure, Siddaramahiah gave a stable 5 years of governance, but that itself was not sufficient as expectations of people these days are much higher from the elected representatives especially the younger population who want faster results and cleaner politics. And, last few days of Modi's campaign helped BJP's surge. Religion also played a key role in Udupi and DK districts in BJP sweeping. Hence, it is unfair to blame on the EVMs.

    BJP - 80-85
    JD(S) - 35-40

    State Intelligence
    Congress - 102
    BJP - 70
    JD(S) - 28

    If we go by the todays results
    BJP - 104
    Congress - 78
    JD(S) - 38

    Is our reputed investigative agency report is flaw of voters tricked them?
    How does such reputed agency work could be accurate?
    Is EVM swapped the results for BJP's majority?

    In the past BJP party president wrote book 'Democracy at risk'. Even its stalwart leaders like LK Advani and Subramanian swamy raised the integrity of the EVM machines until it is started working for the party.
    There are lot of issues Election Commison of India is still need to address pertaining to the EVM. This is the reason developed western world outlawed these machines. Only ECI it is still most trusted ally, even though 'Made in USA' chip installed on every EVM is facing lawsuit in America.

    Mr.Rai you can pay Rs.10 for RTI and raise questions. It is the mandate of the voters please accept it. Still more than 50000 people have voted for you. Kindly work for them so that stone throwers will be one day accept you with garlands.

    Selective tampering could be game plan to conceal large scale tampering and give the required boost to the BJP. The results of the Coastal region in total favour of the BJP raises suspicion of such selective area tampering.

    In the absence of any negativity whatsover of the five years Congress Rule and the widespread negativity towards the Modi Sarkar, EVM tampering in selective areas could be the present game plan to avoid suspicion and favour the BJP.

    I agree with you to a certain extent . One point you have mentioned about small biz person Mr.Mehta from Mumbai, 4 yars back he was just small biz man and today own more than 10,000 crores. If the MLA is non Gujarati, then do you think he would have amassed so much money, even though he is from BJP. Systematically entire Indian economy will be moved to the hands of Gujarathi's. Just analyse who benefited last 4 years and you will get the answer.

    100% sure 30% of EVM machines were already manpulated. 70% of counting machines were VVPT. People please note that where there is ballot paper elections, there BJP will loose. In UP after Assembly election in 2017, there were locale election. BJP lost all seats in local election where there were ballot paper. BJP won seats where there were EMM machine. This is the truth.

    So 100% sure that in Karnataka BJP got this much of seats thru EVM tampering. No Doubt.

Devotees offered some offerings selflessly to Goddess Mukambika of Kollur. Mother was happy children were fed with these offerings. You played politics and took food of hungry children. Forget human beings, even God wont forgive you if you snatch some ones food. My sincere advice to you. Rather than complaining about EVM, go to Kollur. Apologise for your mistake. I am sure Mother will forgive you.

    Indian, Kudla — no the Balatkari/brashtachari Janata Party played the game well and made sure not to tamper with the Ullal electorate EVMs so that blind bhakts will raise the same question as you! Aren't you surprised what the corrupt scoundrel Chaddiyurapppa said two days ago?

    Sir, raising objections to EC is useless. Congress have to launch the protest across the country and convince the people that our democracy is in danger. All opposition parties will join with Congress. Once the people come to the streets, EVM problem will be solved. Ballot paper voting only the solution for this problem. EVM and EC cannot hijack the people's voting rights.

    Prashanth, Karkala / Muscat — the past 4 years the EVMs are to be blamed. Every country in the world has discontinued EVMs and moved back to paper ballots!

    Please check the latest news from West bengal election, How ballot box misused by TMC...

    Prashanth, Karkala / Muscat — If at all there has been misuse of ballot boxes it is because of your dhaku Amit Shah whose only agenda is to grab power at any cost through his devious means — even if it means creating mayhem and taking the lives of innocent citizens . This has been seen in state after state. No worries Karma will get him and will get you as well!!!

    Of course. As per the internal survey UT Khader supposed win with 35000 margin of votes. How his vote share is reduced to 19000? There is serious problem with EVM.

    I strongly agree this. Don't go as per the party name . Select right candidate either BJP/Cong/JDS, who works for the society not for themselves.
