- The questions raised on an EVMs in Varanasi was meant for training purpose. The ADM's mistake was that he did not inform political parties about the movement of EVMs for training purposes as per standard operating procedure.
- When questions were raised by some parties, we showed them no. displayed on that EVM. It didn't match with EVMs that were sealed & kept in the strong room for counting. They were satisfied after this. No EVM on which votes are cast can be taken out from the strong room.
- The counting of votes is a transparent process. There is a standard operating procedure under which we conduct the counting. Authorised polling agents of the political parties are allowed to come inside the counting centre.
- There is no question of EVM tampering. EVMs are continuously used since 2004, in 2019 we have started using VVPAT at every polling booth. EVMs are sealed in the presence of political party agents.

- The public has immense trust on PM Narendra Modi and CM Yogi Adityanath.
- BJP will form government with majority in UP. We will win more seats than the last time.
- BJP will win Sarojini Nagar seat by 1 lakh votes.

In Punjab, exit polls have predicted a big victory for Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party -- which has established its presence in the state -- pushing the ruling Congress to the number 2 position in the 117-member assembly.
In Manipur, polling on the 60 seats took place in two phases - on February 28 and March 3.
This time, the BJP has gone solo and contested all seats alone. The Congress, on the other hand, has forged an alliance of six political parties and named it Manipur Progressive Secular Alliance.
The Goa Assembly polls were held in a single phase this time and all 40 constituencies voted the same day. Goa registered a very high voter turnout averaging around 80 per cent.
Uttarakhand polls are being seen as a straight fight between the ruling BJP and the Opposition Congress. However, the AAP too has run an extensive campaign in the state this time and has tried to project itself as an alternative.
In Punjab, the Congress, riddled by infighting, is up against the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). The AAP, which won 20 seats in the 2017 election, has gone all out this time in its attempts to score a win.
Other contenders in the poll contest are the Shiromani Akali Dal, which walked out of its alliance with the BJP over the protest against farm laws, and has now tied up with BSP. Former Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh has joined forces with the BJP. All 117 seats of Punjab voted on February 20.
The results for the Uttar Pradesh elections 2022 - which were held in seven phases starting February 10. The incumbent Yogi Adityanath government is looking to retain power for another term. The ruling BJP faces a stiff challenge from the Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party.
The Congress and the Mayawati-led Bahujan Samaj Party are also key contenders in the state poll arena.
