Complaints of irregularities are being received from several places during the counting of votes in panchayat election in Bihar. In East Champaran district, several candidates are alleging manipulation during counting of votes in panchayat elections. They believe that there has been a lot of confusion in the counting. Chief candidate of Bhopatpur, southern region of Kotwa block of Motihari, Uma Singh, has also complained of irregularities in counting. She believes that the counting was biased, and despite winning, she was declared defeated.
In a conversation with Sahara Samay, Uma Singh said, "I was treated badly, first I was told that I have won by 176 votes and then suddenly I was declared defeated by 106 votes. There was some conspiracy behind it. The EVMs were opened without calling my agent."
"They were not shown EVM numbers. I demanded re-counting but the authorities ignored me. I was insulted. Even after several requests, the officers were not ready for re-counting of votes and even threatened to arrest me", she further said.
Uma Singh has accused the counting officials of favouritism. She alleged that the victory certificate was issued despite complaints of irregularities in counting.
For candidates like Uma Singh, court is now the last resort.
Moreover, the large scale irregularities in counting have raised questions about the fairness of panchayat elections in Bihar.
