Why EC deviated from the earlier practices and barred media?
Questions were raised over restrictions on media in accessing the election officials at the counting centers to officially get round-wise information.
Untrained officials in the election process who don't know how to open the seals of the EVMs are deployed in the election duties. People turned suspicious as the first four rounds of results were given within an hour or so. But, the results are being delayed from the 5th round. It is not proper on the part of the CEO. To claim that the results are delayed due to the number of contestants. It is the same number of contestant votes counted in the first four rounds as well 5th round, said Raghunandan Rao.
Dubbaka MLA M Raghunandana Rao questions the delay in the declaration of results. TRS and BJP accuse each other of the delay in the counting and round-wise declaring results.
Delays continue to give anxious movements in the candidates and parties in the count and declaration of results 7th round. Election agents raising objections also reportedly contributed to the delay in the results.
The TRS on Sunday said that the victory of TRS was certain.
TRS leaders MP G Ranjith Reddy and D Sravan said that people have supported the TRS by virtue of various schemes of the government. He criticised the BJP for questioning the Election Commission authorities. The announcement will be made only after the authorisation by the observer. "The BJP knows that they will lose hence they were bringing all these unwanted issues. By stating that the BJP was winning morally meant that the party was accepting defeat, said TRS leader D Sravan.
Sravan said that 15 battalions of para military and 15 battalions of CRPF and huge contingent of election observers were in place but still the BJP talks of injustice.
