Talking to The Sunday Express, he said, “I never called the returning officer, nor did Birender Singh. Why were so many calls exchanged, especially on June 7, 9 and 10? It shows the nexus between the returning officer and Chandra.”

Anand said he would have won the election, but for the rejection of 12 votes.

Chandra, who also appeared before the CEO, said that he and Mohan talked to the returning officer as they wanted to be sure that there was no mistake. “I may have talked four to five times with the returning officer. Mohan was in touch with him. Anand could have asked me, I would have given the call details to him. Anand has alleged that I went to the Vidhan Sabha on June 10. It is a bundle of lies,” he said.

He added, “While it is being made into a fight about a pen, it is an internal tussle in the INLD and Congress that led to this result.”
