Lok Sabha Election Result News Updates: Anti-EVM protest disregards people’s mandate, says Amit Shah

A day before the results of the Lok Sabha elections 2019, the Election Commission of India has given the final touch to the counting process across India. There are around 1,600 counting observers to monitor counting of 22.3 lakh ballot units, 16.3 lakh control units, and 17.3 lakh VVPATs. Due to the introduction of new rules to check VVPATs, there may be a delay in the final outcome. Election Commission on Tuesday asserted that the EVMs used in the Lok Sabha polls are “absolutely safe” in strongrooms, dismissing allegations that the voting machines used in the elections were being switched with fresh ones ahead of Lok Sabha election results on May 23. Trends and counting of votes will be disseminated through a portal, starting from 08:00 am tomorrow.
