Sharing pictures of EVMs which had paper tags with BJP written on them, the TMC said on X, “Smt. @MamataOfficial has repeatedly flagged how @BJP4India was trying to rig votes by tampering with EVMs. And today, in Bankura’s Raghunathpur, 5 EVMs were found with BJP tags on them.” The poll body, however, promptly replied to the claim and justified the tags. “While commissioning, common address tags were signed by the Candidates and their agents present. And since only BJP Candidate’s representative was present during that time in the commissioning hall, his signature was taken during commissioning of that EVM and VVPAT,” the poll body replied on the social media platform.
