The Rajasthan Congress on Tuesday expressed concern over the alleged tampering of the EVMs, saying the onus of ensuring the devices' security lies with the Election Commission.
Mahesh Joshi, the Congress' chief whip in the state Assembly, said there is a doubt that the electronic voting machines (EVMs) could be tampered with.
"Several political parties have demanded that the elections should ballot-paper based. It is the Election Commission's responsibility to ensure trust and clarify all doubts," Joshi told reporters. "The EC should give one EVM to political parties and technical expert to check whether they can be tampered."
