Hyderabad: All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) chief and MP Badruddin Ajmal on Friday hit out at BJP after an EVM was found in a BJP candidate’s car in Karimganj district of Assam.
The MP from Dhubri took to Twitter and said that the Bharatiya Janata Party has failed in all its tactics and has now resorted to EVM theft.
“Polarisation? Failed. Buying votes? Failed. Buying candidates? Failed. Jumle-baazi? Failed. Double CMs? Failed. Doublespeak on CAA? Failed,” the MP wrote in a tweet.
He added, “Loser BJP’s last resort: steal the EVMs” and called it “Murder of democracy”.
