Mumbai, 3rd Dec. Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar said on Sunday that he would not be surprised if some people cry foul and put the blame on EVMs for the assembly elections outcome, as counting was underway in four states.
BJP was on its way to gain power in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan and had a distinct edge in Chhattisgarh while the Congress was poised to oust the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) in Telangana.
Speaking to reporters, Pawar said Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s work was being appreciated by the people.
“I will not be surprised if people from the INDIA alliance start blaming the EVMs (electronic voting machines) for the results,” he said.
If EVMs are to be blamed in these three states (MP, Rajasthan and Rajasthan), what about Telangana? he said.
“We need to accept that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s image and his work is being appreciated by the people,” he said.
On the BRS trailing behind Congress in Telangana, Pawar said, “I think he (BRS head and Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao) showed overconfidence and came to Maharashtra for expansion (of his party base).”
He (Rao) held huge rallies and made several promises. However, he has been rejected by his own state, Pawar said.
People’s decisions are always supreme, he added.
