Election Commission meets representatives of political party
New Delhi, Feb 4 (IBNS): Ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, a delegation of representatives of some national and state level recognised political parties met the Election Commission of India at Nirvachan Sadan on Monday.
The Commission heard the concerns of the representatives regarding the demands related to the counting of Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail machine (VVPAT) slips.
It assured the political parties that issues raised by them would be deliberated and examined, an official statement claimed.
While considering the averments made by the political parties, the Commission said that it shall also keep in view the pronouncements made by the different courts as well as the report expected shortly from the Indian Statistical Institute on the subject besides the overall administrative and operational feasibility on the ground, before firming up any response.
