The Election Commission on Tuesday told Congress leader Jairam Ramesh that there was nothing on record to substantiate his "ill-founded allegation" of a slowdown in updating of Haryana poll results.

Earlier in the day, the Congress had raised with the EC the issue of an "unexplained slowdown" in updating of results of the Haryana elections on the poll watchdog's website and urged it to direct officials to update accurate figures so that "false news and malicious narratives" can be countered immediately.
