Silchar Karimganj Election
Correspondent
SILCHAR, April 27 – The Assam United Democratic Front (AUDF) has expressed fears about EVM manipulation both in Silchar and Karimganj constituency. The party is worried about the security arrangement of the strong room as well as in SS College, Hailakandi. This has already been brought to the notice of the Election Commission by Hafiz Rasid Choudhury, working president of AUDF.
Choudhury alleged that in SS College there may be some manipulation of the EVM as Gautam Roy, State Minister has already confirmed the win of Lalit Mohan Suklaibaidya, the Congress candidate from Karimganj constituency. Choudhury assumed that Roy might have chalked out a blue print to manipulate the EVMs.
Choudhury further said that people have noticed a dramatic change in the political scenario of Barak Valley after the arrival of AUDF. AUDF is placed in a very strong position in Silchar and Karimganj constituencies where the Congress has no chance of winning, he said.
Choudhury urged the EC to shift all EVMs to Karimganj which are presently at Hailakandi for better security.
On the other hand, Gautam Ganguly, returning officer, said that there has been no security lapse in the strong room. The security personnel have been keeping a close watch on the strong room and, even he himself was not allowed to enter the strong room. Videography of the entire process from sealing and depositing the EVMs in the strong room has been done, he maintained.
Ganguly denied the allegations put forward by the AUDF and the local media about the negligence in the security arrangement in the strong room. He said that it is nothing but rumour.
But AUDF is worried that a desperate Congress might attempt to manipulate the EVMs as the party supremo Badaruddin Ajmal will definitely win from this constituency defeating the Congress candidate Santosh Mohan Deb. ASSAM TRIBUNE
