As per news agency ANI, Adhir claimed that there is some secret hidden in EVMs. He further added, "How does Modi ji know before the elections that there will be 370 seats? If they have removed Article 370, it means that you will get 370 seats. I think there is some secret hidden in EVMs. It seems that Modi ji has some hand in the EVMs.".
