BJP Minister caught worshipping EVM inside booth!
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,November 22 2018]
Recently, polling to the Chhattisgarh Assembly happened in two phases. During the second phase held on Tuesday, BJP state minister Dayaldas Baghel did something curious with an electronic voting machine inside a polling booth in a village. Guess what it is? A puja!
Someone caught the puja ceremony to the 'divine' EVM on the camera and circulated it on social media. The video has been brought to the notice of the returning officer of Nawagarh from where Baghel is contesting on a BJP ticket. The RO has sought an explanation from Baghel.
Meanwhile, the Congress has damned the Minister's act. In a democracy, a leader has to worship the common people and the voters, not EVMs. The BJP and its ministers did not work for the people for 15 years and offering prayers to EVMs on the polling day will not work for them, Shailesh Nitin Trivedi of the Cong said.
