AGARTALA, Nov 29 (TIWN): Chief Election Commissioner A.K. Jyoti on Wednesday asked state to aware public vastly about EVM, AAPAT uses.
The issue was raised by BJP alleging there are various confusions intentionally being created about VVPAT. In a meeting with full bench of election commissioner, led by state BJP Observer Sunil Deodhar, Ashok Sinha it was told the EC. “The election commission has decided to use EVM with VVPAT in Tripura. That’ll ally the fear in the minds of people that EVMs are manipulated. The use of EVM with VVPAT should be utilized widely by the election commission, so that there is no confusion or fear in the minds of people in face of counter propaganda. People are already misled by saying that they would have to bring the receipt to show it to the CPI-M, once they come out of the booth it would reveal the party they have voted for. The publicity must be very thorough in local languages, including tribal languages and dialects”.
However accordingly EC has given directions for proper awareness and also said that DEOs and SPs should take highest initiative for it.
