Shocking: Viral Video Of Woman Holding Voters’ Hands To Press EVM Button (Watch)

A video shared by a senior journalist on Twitter shows how a woman at a polling station obstructs other voters from casting their vote.

In the 0.28-second video clip, it is clearly visible that the woman in question is violating the poll process. A polling official can also be seen sitting at the booth. However, he makes no attempt to stop her.

No independent vote for women in India! In rural Bengal what looks like a female election officer in a voting booth in a village, takes the hand of each woman voter and presses the #EVM button for the party that she is to favor. Wonder which party? pic.twitter.com/tQkGkEtQSJ
