I have been thinking, haven't the Leftists attempted this EVM bad, bring paper ballots conspiracy already in India multiple times and failed?
If this did not work back then, why do we think they will suddenly achieve it this time around? Yes these morons like Sagarika have been trying to leverage this recent US election as a proof that "it works and is more democratic", but I don't think majority of Indian population will fall for this when the memory of paper ballots and booth capturing is still fresh in the minds of most rural populations of India and even many urban ones.
Yes the leftists will try to create a narrative from now till 2024 that EVM are being used for election fraud in India, but these can now be easily countered as long as we debunk their claims at every turn and keep a ledger of their claims and our counter-claims so that when 2024 comes around, the Indian Digital Media Association can do its thing and prevent the spread of misinformation thereby thwarting any liberal plans for fraud in Indian elections.
Given that 2024 will also see an American election, there could be a Republican candidate that is strong and tries hard to prevent a repeat of 2020 elections by exposing the Democrats then. Even if the American media censor him, that candidate's stance will also have a bearing on Indian urban population (particularly fence sitters).
In fact, its better for us if the Left tries to use this as their main strategy for 2024 because its bound to fail in India and because that will also strengthen Indian Election Machinery (because GoI and EC will realize that there are attempts afoot to tamper with elections, they'll take expeditious measures to thwart any such attempts).
