Samajwadi Party (SP) national president Akhilesh Yadav has asked party leaders and workers to protect their votes after the completion of voting on 10 Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh on Tuesday. He sealed the EVMs and kept monitoring them till they reach the strong room and counting of votes.

Akhilesh wrote on his social media account After the voting is over, remain fully alert until the EVMs are sealed and reach the strong room. Everyone stand firm together. If any foul play is suspected, immediately send the video as proof. He said in the post that he should give his all to protect his vote as a 'booth protector' and 'soldier of the Constitution'.

The party has written and posted a similar thing on Facebook. Apart from monitoring the EVMs on behalf of the party, after the end of voting, you should follow the vehicle on which the EVM goes to the strong room and leave it till the strong room. Also, the party's polling agent must obtain Form 17C (Part-1) from the presiding officer and provide it to the election agent.
