"Reports from all over Delhi of EVM malfunction, people wid voter slips not allowed to vote. What is SEC doing? (sic)" he wrote on Twitter.
One SEC official admitted that there were reports of "technical glitches" from a few places but added that the faults were rectified.
Earlier, after casting his vote, Kejriwal urged the voters of Delhi to come out of their houses and exercise their franchise for a "dengue and chikungunya-free Delhi".
"I appeal to the people to come out in large numbers and vote for a chikungunya and dengue-free Delhi," he told reporters.
Asked if the MCD polls were a referendum on the AAP government's two-year performance in Delhi, he said, "We will see that when the results are declared on Wednesday."
