Election Commission has announced the date of Delhi Assembly elections-2025. Voting for 70 assembly seats of Delhi will be held on 5 February, while the counting of votes will be done on 8 February.
Notification for Delhi assembly elections will be issued on 10 January. The last date for filing nomination in this election is 17 February, while scrutiny of nomination papers will be done on 17 February and the last date for withdrawal of nomination for candidates has been kept as 20 February.
Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar has also rejected all the allegations of opposition parties related to EVM and election process. He said that allegations have been made against EVM.
Names are deleted from voter list with consent of political parties
This time a complaint was also made about deletion of names from the voter list. Allegations of irregularities in the voter list were also made.
Actually, Aam Aadmi Party has accused of deletion of names of many voters from the voter list before the elections in Delhi. On these allegations, Rajiv Kumar said that a set process is followed to remove the name of a voter from the list and the voter list is updated with the consent of political parties.
EC’s response to the allegations on EVMs
After the last few assembly elections, the Congress party has openly raised questions on EVMs. Apart from this, other parties have also made serious allegations against the Election Commission many times.
On these allegations, Rajiv Kumar has said, "20 assembly elections have been held since 2020, in which different parties have won the maximum number of seats in 15 places." Rajiv Kumar has claimed that India's elections are of 'gold standard'.
Response on increase in voting figures
Rajiv Kumar said that it is alleged that crores of votes were increased in the counting of votes.
On this allegation, he said that this happens due to the process and it takes time for the data to come from every place, if there is no internet in the EVM, then it will take time.
He said that the High Court and the Supreme Court have been continuously saying in different orders that there can be no tampering or hacking in EVMs.
Rajeev Kumar has said that many times it is also alleged that more votes have been counted than the number of votes cast.
This happens if the mock poll data is not removed in some machines, this can happen in four machines out of lakhs of machines.
The votes of such machines are kept aside and after the counting is over, if this vote is less than the margin of victory or defeat, then the candidate is declared the winner.
