Rao General Secretary FAME (Foundation for Advanced Management of Elections) and Ex-advisor to Election Commission of India dispelled the misconception that Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) can be tampered with. Mr. Rao said that EVMs are absolutely foolproof and tamperproof. They are very much comparable to the best EVMs used even in the USA. During the development of EVM’s they were put to rigorous tests and there after no complainant about tampering of EVMs from time to time and in different parts of the country could prove his complaint, in fact many of the complaining parties had won the same elections where they had complained against the EVMs, the complaints were more or less political exercise of the parties to save their face just in case they lost the elections. He urged that media should also come forward and inform the people about the reliability of EVM; he subtly hinted that such rumors against EVMs should not be entertained by media if any political party tries to spread them.
