Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, while addressing a press cponference in Gondia on Sunday, said the Opposition was heading for a “historic defeat” in the forthcoming Assembly polls.
Criticising the opposition parties, he said they have joined hands against the use of electronic voting machines (EVMs) in elections to make an excuse for their own losses.
Raising alarm over EVMs, key opposition parties — including the Congress, NCP and MNS — on Friday pitched for reverting to the use of ballot papers and announced a protest march on August 21 over the issue.
