Counting for Anantnag bypoll suspended

Counting for the bypoll to Anantnag Assembly seat of Jammu and Kashmir was today suspended after Congress candidate Hilal Ahmad Shah alleged that the EVMs have been tampered with.

The counting was stopped after Shah and his agents walked out



of the counting hall, officials said.

They said Shah alleged that some EVMs were not carrying the mandatory seal and might have been changed in the process to favour Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti, who is a candidate from the seat.
