Those winning elections due to Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) will be defeated if polling for the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly polls is held using ballot papers only, the NCP said on Wednesday.

"The party the people like in a true sense will be known if the 2024 Assembly polls are held using 100 per cent ballot papers. (If that happens) those winning elections using EVMs will get defeated," NCP''s Maharashtra chief spokesperson Mahesh Tapase said in a statement without naming any party or individual.
