Sharing two pictures of EVMs with paper tags with BJP written on them, the Mamata Banerjee-led party posted on X, "Smt. @MamataOfficial has repeatedly flagged how @BJP4India was trying to rig votes by tampering with EVMs. And today, in Bankura's Raghunathpur, 5 EVMs were found with BJP tags on them."
