SHILLONG: The UDP has decided to provide documents and letters to Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) P Naik to substantiate its claim that EVMs were hacked during the last Assembly election held on February 23 and the need to revert back to paper ballots or to depend on upgraded EVMs with paper trails of votes.
UDP leader Allan Dkhar said on Thursday that the party will hand over its letter written in December 2012 to Naik to either bring in upgraded EVMs with paper trails of votes or revert back to paper ballots.
Mock drills for the use of upgraded EVMs with paper trails of votes were conducted in Sohra in 2011 and 2012.
Dkhar said that the party will also hand over another letter to Naik which was written on June 12 this year addressed to the Chief Election Commissioner on the tampering and hacking of EVMs during the State Assembly election.
