New Delhi: The Aam Aadmi Party on Monday accused the Election Commission of siding with the BJP and not functioning like a independent body it is mandated to be.
Reacting to the EC dismissing their allegation of tampering with Electronic Voting Machines (EVM), AAP spokesperson Saurabh Bharadwaj said, “EC is not behaving like a neutral body. They are behaving like ally partner of the BJP."
“I doubt the education knowledge of those talking on behalf of the EC. They are working like puppets," he said.

AAP which was widely expected to win the elections won 20 seats in the Punjab Assembly, came second in 26 constituencies while over two dozen AAP candidates lost their security deposit.
AAP's national secretary Pankaj Gupta said his party analysed booth-wise voting pattern and reached a conclusion that EVMs were tampered with. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had on March 15 also alleged that manipulation of EVMs may have led to the AAP's poor showing in Punjab and said it could be part of a conspiracy to keep the party out of power in the state.
