Srinagar: Peoples Democratic Party chief Mehbooba Mufti on Friday claimed that Border Security Force personnel manhandled a voter at a polling booth in Jammu because he refused to cast his vote for the Bharatiya Janata Party. Meanwhile, National Conference leader Omar Abdullah claimed that the Congress symbol button on electronic voting machines are not working in Poonch polling stations.
Mufti attached a video to corroborate her claim on Twitter. “Using armed forces at polling stations to coerce people to vote for the BJP shows their desperation and hunger to usurp power by hook or crook,” she tweeted.
