Samajwadi Party workers across Uttar Pradesh are facing police cases for checking government vehicles entering counting centres the night before the counting of votes for the state election that concluded on March 10.
Controversy had erupted two days before the counting after Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, the biggest challenger to the BJP, alleged that Electronic Voting Machines were being stolen from a counting Centre in Varanasi. Mr Yadav had urged party workers to guard EVMs, or Electronic Voting Machines, round the clock before the counting process began.
The same night and the next day, Samajwadi Party workers had assembled in large numbers across counting centres in all 75 districts of the state, and videos from multiple locations had emerged of government vehicles being checked by them before entering the counting centres.
