This information has been given by District Election Officer and District Collector Neha Kumari. The viral video is said to be from Santrampur assembly constituency of Mahisagar district included in Dahod Lok Sabha seat. Vijay Bhabhor, the person who voted, made a live video on Instagram with the EVM and it went viral.
In the video, the young man is saying that this machine belongs to his father (EVM mere baap ka hai). The young man himself is seen pressing the button instead of the people voting and saying that the vote is done. He is also seen asking the people who voted to go back.
