Actually, questions are being raised about this by internet users on social media. One such person posted on X and asked that there is a difference of thousands at some places between the number of votes cast on EVMs and the number of votes counted. How can this happen?

The Chief Election Officer of Uttar Pradesh has responded to this. He said that such a difference can occur due to special protocols. Votes from some polling stations are not counted due to the following reasons…

1. Sometimes the presiding officer forgets to delete the mock poll data from the control unit before the real voting begins. Or, sometimes the mock poll slips are not deleted from the VVPAT.

2. There may be a difference between the total votes cast in the control unit and the record of Form 17-C prepared by the presiding officer. In such a situation also, the total votes cast in the EVM and the votes counted may be different.

According to the Election Commission, the votes of such polling stations are counted in the end only if their total is equal to or more than the difference between the first and second candidates. If the total difference is less than the margin, then these votes are not counted. This way there is a difference between the votes cast in the EVM and the votes counted.

On the other hand, the Election Commission dedicated the violence-free Lok Sabha elections to Mahatma Gandhi. The ECI said that the Commission has completely foiled the attempt to derail the election process with rumors and baseless suspicions that could create unrest in the country.

Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar said that the Election Commission, dedicated to the nation for 76 years, will continue to serve with unwavering dedication. The Commission said, ‘We have foiled the attempt to derail the election process with rumors and baseless suspicions that could create unrest. The will and wisdom of the common man, who has unwavering faith in the democratic institutions of India, has won.’

First the votes of ballot papers are being counted and then the votes of EVM will be counted. Along with Rajasthan, votes are being counted on all the Lok Sabha seats across the country today. By noon it will be clear who will rule the country for the next five years.

There are 25 Lok Sabha seats in Rajasthan – Ganganagar, Bikaner, Churu, Jhunjhunu, Sikar, Jaipur Rural, Jaipur, Alwar, Bharatpur, Karoli-Dholpur, Dausa, Tonk-Sawai Madhopur, Ajmer, Nagaur, Pali, Jodhpur, Barmer, Jalore, Udaipur, Banswara, Chittorgarh, Rajsamand, Bhilwara, Kota, Jhalawar-Baran.

All the exit polls for Rajasthan have predicted that the Bharatiya Janata Party may have to suffer some losses as compared to the 2019 and 2014 Lok Sabha elections. Exit polls predicted that the BJP will not be able to perform the miracle of 25-0 for the third time in a row. Congress, which lost the government last year, may capture some seats. According to the exit poll of India Today-Axis My India, the BJP may get 16-19 seats, while the Congress is expected to get 5-7 seats and others 1-2 seats. In Rajasthan, while the BJP gave a chance to many current MPs and Union Ministers, it also bet on new faces on some seats. The Congress party also tried its best to increase the difficulties of the BJP by fielding strong candidates according to the caste equation on many seats.
