Leaders of 19 opposition parties, which include Congress, SP, BSP, TMC among others, held a meeting at the Constitution Club of New Delhi. Among topics which were possibly discussed, the topic most important was EVMs and their security.

They, then, went to meet the officials at the Election Commission and submitted a memorandum to the poll body. In the memorandum to the Election Commission, the Opposition parties claimed that EVM guidelines were flouted during the Lok Sabha election and demanded VVPAT verification.

In the memorandum, the Opposition leaders have also demanded that if any discrepancy is found during the VVPAT verification, 100 percent counting of VVPATs of all polling stations of that Assembly segment should be done.

However, earlier in the day, EC rejected the rumours of EVM tampering and said, "Complaints of alleged movements of EVMs, purposedly to replace polled EVMs in strongrooms, are doing rounds in sections of media. We would like to unambiguously clarify that reports are absolutely false."
