The Congress repeatedly goes to the Supreme Court regarding EVM and comes back after being defeated... If anyone has been humiliated, it is the Congress...

Still, the Congress is going to the Supreme Court regarding this entire issue. This shows that the Congress has no respect for the Constitution," Patra told reporters The debate over Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) reignited as the Opposition is planning to approach the Supreme Court questioning their reliability.
