Congress did not reject EVMs, says P Chidambaram
Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram clarified that his party does not reject Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) but supports improving the Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) system. He emphasised the need for enhancements to ensure transparency, suggesting that voters should be able to physically receive and deposit the VVPAT slip. Chidambaram denied blaming EVMs and advocated for ongoing reform to strengthen the electoral process.
