Ahead of vote counting for Delhi Assembly elections on Saturday, former Delhi chief minister and Aam Aadmi Party's national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Friday claimed that the Election Commission of India has been ignoring requests from the party and has refused to upload Form 17C and the number of votes polled per booth in each assembly.
In a post on X, Kejriwal stated, "EC has refused to upload Form 17C and the number of votes polled per booth in each assembly despite several requests. Aam Aadmi Party has made a website - http://transparentelections.in where we have uploaded all the Form 17Cs of every assembly. This form has all the details of votes polled in each booth."
"Throughout the day, we will present the data of every assembly and every booth in a tabulated format so that every voter can access this information. This is something that the Election Commission should have done in the interest of transparency, but it is unfortunate that they are refusing to do it," he added.
After polling for the Delhi Assembly Elections concluded on Wednesday, many pollsters predicted BJP's clear victory in the elections. On Thursday, two major agencies came out with their survey results and predicted over 50 seats for the BJP.
Responding to exit polls that favoured the BJP over AAP, Kejriwal on Thursday claimed that the BJP tried to poach 16 AAP candidates by offering them Rs 15 crore each.
