Bengaluru, Nov 12: Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), which had earlier accused the Bharatiya Janata Party of tampering Electronic Voting Machines in Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls, has now demanded that Election Commission of India use ballot papers in 2018 Karnataka Assembly polls.

Addressing a media conference in Kalaburgi recently, Marasandra Muniyappa, State Coordinator of the party, said that “EVM tampering” by BJP was the only reason for his party’s defeat in Uttar Pradesh. “The BJP is capable of doing the same in Karnataka too,” he said.

He said: “Nowhere in the world, except in India, are EVMs used in elections, as there is a possibility of tampering with them. It is ‘EVM tampering’ alone that led to our defeat in Uttar Pradesh. Tampering with was not done in Punjab, Goa, Manipur and Uttarakhand that went to the polls, with Uttar Pradesh. It was done only in Uttar Pradesh as it had become an issue of prestige for the BJP to record a victory there,” he said. He added that his party approached the court as it had sufficient evidence to establish ‘EVM tampering’, he said.

Mr. Muniyappa exuded the confidence of winning at least 25 seats in the upcoming Assembly election in Karnataka. “We were in second or third places in five constituencies in the last election. We have built our party structure at grass-roots level and expanded our mass base in many constituencies,” he said.

100% sure. BJP can go to any extend to get the power.

For a clear mandate and to stop politicans bribe and criminal activity voting to be conducted by Ballot Paper syestem in Karnataka State. What ever happend in UP;Goa; Punjab is not the matter and no need to compare with Karnataka state election. Both leading party at Karnataka may play their money power and here highy possibility is from bjp.

Hence to keep value on our franchise all need to prefer Ballot system and boycot EVM. Not need to trust with even election commission. Any how they are looting and misused tax payers money. Spend more money if election cmmison reuqire to engage more man poser for counting. FInal result will come with respect to citizens opinion with fare and clear.

Dhikkar to Corruption

Congress has no role in bickering among BJP legislators, says Siddaramaiah

News Network

June 3,2020

Koppal, Jun 3: Opposition Leader in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah on Wednesday said that allegedly there was deep crisis in the state BJP but categorically denied any role of Congress in it.

Addressing a press conference here, the former Chief Minister said 'I and my party have nothing to do with the developments in the ruling party. I came to know through media that some 25 BJP MLAs allegedly not satisfied with the way of functioning of the government. The Congress party is not interested in what is happenings in BJP and if the government falls on its own, then Congress might stake claim to form the government eventually".

Mr Siddaramaiah alleged that the State’s BJP government was trying to 'subvert the Constitution and Panchayat Raj Laws' by postponing election to Gram Panchayats citing spread of COVID-19.

'The Commission has not provided any information so far about the preparation of electoral rolls, fixing of reservation to seats, and calendar of events for holding elections. It is the duty of the Commission to hold elections as per the Karnataka Gram Swaraj and Panchayat Raj Act,' he further said.

The EC on May 28 postponed elections to GPs citing 'exceptional circumstances' prevailing in Karnataka following the coronavirus pandemic situation. Elections to as many as 5,800 GPs scheduled to be held by next month with the ending of their terms have been put off, and fresh dates were yet to be announced.
