"Out of 13,000 polling stations, EVMs were changed in only 18 cases. It shows our EVMs are unhackable, robust and no wrong can be done," Srivastava said.
"It (the number) speaks for itself," he said, adding that the machines have done well.
"I reached the polling station at 8 am. But, I could not cast my vote as the EVM was not working. I had to leave the place due to some urgent work. I will later go to exercise my franchise," said Lovely.
Voting at some polling stations in North Delhi's Burari area and Southwest Delhi's Kapashera areas had to be stopped for a few minutes after complaints of malfunctioning of the EVMs were reported from there.
Out of the 13,022 polling stations, police had declared 3,284 as "sensitive" and 1,464 as "hyper-sensitive". For the first time in the MCD elections, "None Of The Above (NOTA)" option was made available to the voters. Out of the total 1,32,10,206 electors, 1.1 lakh were first-time voters.
