Opposition request to handle EVM religiously but reports of tampering state of EVM are being shown and EC unable to assure with strictness is matter of disdain to democracy transition. Media: EC to please take strict swift action with 48 hrs Inject confidence
We, the undersigned, are deeply perturbed and concerned with reports coming in from various part of the country of EVM machines and even a VVPAT being transported in unauthorized trucks and private vehicles, the alleged attempts to exchange the EVM machines from strong rooms and replace them with alternate EVM machines. There are also videos of EVMs being stored in unauthorized storage houses and shops.While the election commission has denied over years that EVMs can be tampered, many of us have been raising the issue of EVM tampering from Gujarat 2002 election onwards.We are concerned that Voters’ Verdict sealed inside the EVM machines is sought to be tampered. We strongly believe that the responsibility of ensuring that the Voters’ Verdict is not changed and manipulated lies with the Election Commission. However, the role of the Election Commission can no longer said to be neutral, which is visible from the internal news coming out of the Election Commission, where the commission refused to include the dissent note of Ashok Lavasa in commission’s orders.
We are appealing to political parties as well as the ordinary citizens of India who have fought for the last five years against the authoritarian communal fascist regime to ensure the safety of the EVM machines.
We request you to:
1. Guard the Strong Rooms round the clock
2. Do not allow any unauthorized EVMs to be brought into the strong rooms.
3. Report any suspicious activity immediately on social media
4. On the day of the counting the representatives of political parties must
a. Check that the EVMs are sealed before the counting begins
b. Check the Number of the EVM machine and tally it with the list of EVM machines in which voting was done in your particular booth.
5. Report to the media, party and local authorities and stop the process of declaration of result and demand re-polling.We appeal to the security personnel, the law enforcement agencies to ensure that on May 23rd the counting passes off peacefully and no violence is tolerated.Campaign to go back to ballot like all developed countries will continue after the formation of the new government.SignedAditya Mukherjee, academician, historian, DelhiAnand Mazgaonkar, GujaratAnnie Raja, National General Secretary, NFIW, DelhiAnshu Malviya, poet, UPAruna Roy, MKSS, RajasthanDanial Mazgaonkar, GujaratDev Desai, Social activist, GujaratDhruv Sangari, musician, singer, DelhiDinesh Abrol, former scientist, DelhiDipen Desai, GujaratGauhar Raza, former scientist, poet, DelhiJyotibhai Desai, GujaratKamal Krishna Vaish, UPKoninika Ray, NFIW, Delhi
