Soon after self-proclaimed cyber expert Syed Shuja on Monday claimed in London that almost all elections in India have been rigged since 2014 through EVM hacking, the Election Commission of India has issued a clarification.

"These EVMs are manufactured in Bharat Electronics Ltd. and Electronics Corporation of India Ltd. under very strict supervisory and security conditions. There are rigorous Standard Operating Procedures observed under supervision of a Committee of technical experts constituted in 2010. It is being separately examined as to what legal action can and should be taken in the matter," the constitutional body said.

Meanwhile, BJP leader MA Naqvi has alleged that Congress is behind the hackathon. "Congress has a lot of freelancers, who sometimes reach even Pakistan to take help for removing Modiji. They are making a hacking horror show of their possible defeat in the upcoming elections," he said.
