Karnataka Report Debunks Rahul Gandhi's EVM Claims; Public Trusts Fair Elections

• A report by Karnataka's own KMEA debunks Rahul Gandhi's claims of EVM rigging and public distrust in elections.
• The study found 91.31% of voters believe Indian elections are fair, and 83.61% have full faith in EVMs.
• This contradicts the Karnataka Congress government's proposal to use ballot papers for local elections, citing eroded public trust.
• The report highlights concerns about money power (49.55%) and inducements (16.33%), with government schemes and job promises being primary.
• Regarding women's voting, 51.64% believe they should decide independently, while 37.71% think they should consult household men/elders.

Why It Matters: Karnataka government's own report affirms public trust in EVMs and fair elections, contradicting Congress's stance.
