The claim
Hindustan’ newspaper clippings showing that in the Katehari and Phulpur constituencies, both the winning BJP candidates and the trailing SP candidates received 78,289 votes and 66,984 votes, respectively, which hints EVM manipulation.
Original review summary
The review says the viral clippings were digitally edited. It reports that the original figures matched in Phulpur, but in Katehari BJP candidate Dharmraj Nishad received 104,091 votes and SP candidate Shobhawati Verma received 69,597.[S1]
