But the important thing is that voting took place at a record level in Jammu and Kashmir. So those who questioned EVMs, democracy and those who promoted stone pelting, terrorism, and separatism, used to look more towards Pakistan, the voters of India have shown time and again that India's democracy is very strong, this is the victory of democracy..."
