EVM Malfunctions Reported in Maharashtra Civic Polls

During the Maharashtra civic elections, some voters found problems with the electronic voting machines (EVMs).

In Parbhani, a ballot unit had a link error and was quickly replaced.

In Navi Mumbai, voters said that when they pressed the NOTA button, the vote was going to the BJP candidate instead.

This caused confusion and anger among the voters.

They asked for the faulty EVM to be changed, but officials have not yet made an official statement.

The elections are continuing with more attention being paid to the voting process.
