Kejriwal launches website for 'transparency': 'EC refused to upload poll data'

The votes will be counted on Saturday for the elections that took place across 70 constituencies in the capital.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Friday accused the Election Commission of refusing to share crucial poll data.

“EC has refused to upload form 17C and number of votes polled per booth in each assembly despite several requests. Aam Aadmi Party has made a website - http://transparentelections.in where we have uploaded all the form 17C of every assembly. This form has all the details of votes polled in each booth,” stated the AAP chief on the social media platform X.

According to Kejriwal, through the day, the AAP will present the data of every assembly and every booth in a tabulated format as well so that every voter can access this information. “This is something that the election commission should have done in the interest of transparency, but it is unfortunate that they are refusing to do it,” said Kejriwal.
