Srinagar Dec 9 (IBNS): Ex-Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abudllah on Saturday urged that the Election Commission should clarify the controversy raised over the functioning of the EVMs.

He said the Election Commission should take steps to clarify the controversies and restore people's faith on the functioning of the machines.

"I’ve been extremely sceptical of EVM related conspiracy theories but I’m being to question my unwavering faith in the machines & their infallibility," Omar Abdullah tweeted.

In another tweet, he said: "I hope the Election Commission can step up & address the questions that are being asked of it about the trustworthiness of voting machines."
