“Let the affidavit be filed within a period of three weeks,” said the bench.“EC has to explain to us how an EVM, which can take 1,500 votes, caters to a polling booth having over 1,500 voters and if only 45 votes per hour can be cast in a single machine. How it can accommodate all 1,500 votes if there is cent percent voting from 6 am to 5 pm,” it said.Singh said the bench knew about the consistent allegations on EVMs, adding, “They will keep on coming. The polling has been happening like this since 2019 and political parties are being consulted before this in every constituency.”
