AAP's allegations on EVM

Shortly after polling concluded, AAP claimed of having received information from "several places" that officials were trying to take away the electronic voting machines (EVMs) in an unauthorized manner. Speaking to the media, AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh stated that AAP leaders including Manish Sisodia, Gopal Rai, Prashant Kishor and himself held a meeting with Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal where they exchanged information about unauthorised handling of EVMs. He further questioned how the EVM machines reached the officers when they should have been sealed and taken straight to strongrooms. BJP has condemned these allegations.
