LUCKNOW: Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati on Thursday said her party’s “good days” would return if elections are held through ballot papers instead of electronic voting machines (EVMs).
Addressing a press conference here, she reiterated her demand for conducting all elections through ballot papers, alleging that EVMs were being tampered to prevent BSP candidates from winning.
“Parties with casteist ideologies, both in power and in opposition, have been managing certain opportunistic and self-serving individuals from Dalit and other marginalised communities behind the scenes. These elements are being used to form various organisations and parties that are misleading our support base and dividing votes in BSP’s strongholds, especially in Uttar Pradesh,” she said.
