The Congress party on Thursday decided to set up a technical team to investigate the complaints and alleged discrepancies related to electronic voting machines (EVMs) raised by its candidates in Haryana.The decision was made after the party convened a meeting in Delhi to discuss the results of the Haryana elections, in which it faced a setback, winning only 37 seats.

The party leaders urged that these EVMs be sealed and secured until the inquiry is completed. A delegation of senior leaders including former chief ministers Bhupinder Singh Hooda and Ashok Gehlot, as well as AICC members KC Venugopal, Jairam Ramesh, Ajay Maken and Pawan Khera along with Haryana Congress chief Udai Bhan met with top officials from the Election Commission to discuss the matter.
