Navaratna Defence PSU Bharat Electronics Ltd Saturday asserted that electronic voting machines manufactured by it were "non-tamperable" and "not a single case of mismatch" between EVMs and VVPATs were reported in the Lok Sabha polls.
Defending EVMs over allegations of tampering levelled by opposition parties during the recently-concluded general elections, BEL CMD M V Gowtama told reporters here that the "storm" created by political parties before the polls has died down.
"We didn't have even a single case of mismatch reported between EVMs and VVPATs. So, that is the greatest achievement...I assure you that the EVMs manufactured by BEL are non-tamperable and no mischief can be played with those EVMs," he said.
Asked about doubts raised by the opposition parties about mismatch between votes polled and counted, Gowtama said, "The storm created before the elections has died down post-polls, by all political parties.They all knew very well that these machines cannot be tampered with."
