Shobha Karandlaje is right now 3rd at some 6000 votes. She made a bold move by fighting from Rajaji Nagar where Suresh Kumar from BJP is very strong.

Yes there are ways like the one mentioned by Dhiman ji. But this will lenghten the counting duration and many will argue that EVMs have lost their value if time is not saved. Although I must accept that the election process will then become almost fool proof.
