EVMs in Kolathur Under Verification After M.K. Stalin’s Petition

The Election Commission of India has initiated a verification process for the electronic voting machines (EVMs) deployed in the Kolathur constituency after a petition was filed by Dr. M.K. Stalin, the chief minister of Tamil Nadu and leader of the DMK. The petition, lodged on behalf of the DMK, raised concerns over the integrity of the EVMs used in the recent elections. In response, the Election Commission has dispatched a team of technical experts to conduct a thorough audit of the machines, including checks for tampering and software integrity. The verification is expected to be completed within a few days, after which the results will be announced to ensure transparency and public confidence in the electoral process.
