Congress leader Kirti Azad on Sunday claimed foul play in connection with electronic voting machines (EVMs), alleging that Home Minister Amit Shah is behind "this dirty game."

"Photos and videos of foul play with the EVMs have surfaced. I think that Home Minister Amit Shah is the mastermind of this dirty game," Azad told ANI.

I have full confidence the Congress will get a good number of seats in Delhi," he added.

The Congress leader also said that Manoj Tiwari has the ability to do well in politics but he has to "mature.
