CAML Query Using CSOM in PowerShell

Question

Hi,
I am trying to retrieve list items based on certain conditions using CAML query. I am using CAML query in Powershell using CSOM.​ The issue is no matter what condition i provide, it returns all list items. Any help would be highly appreciated. The script is: 
# Location of DLL's
$loc ="C:\SharePoint\ClientDLL"
Write-Host "Date Range"
Set-Location $loc
Add-Type -Path (Resolve-Path Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll)
Add-Type -Path (Resolve-Path Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime.dll)
#Write the path of SharePoint Portal within double braces
$siteUrl = ""
#Login ID
$loginname = ""
#$listname=""
Write-Host "Please enter password for $($siteUrl):"
$pwd = Read-Host -AsSecureString
$ctx = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($siteUrl)
$ctx.Credentials = New-Object System.Net.NetworkCredential($loginname, $pwd)
$web = $ctx.Web
$list=$Web.Lists.GetByTitle($listname)
$count = $list.ItemCount
Write-Host $count
$newline = [environment]::newline
$($list.Title)
Write-Host -NoNewline "Deleting list items from : $($listname)" -foregroundcolor black -backgroundcolor yellow
#$caml="<View><Query><Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Title'/><Value Type='Text'>achint</Value></Eq></Where></Query></View>"
$caml="<View><Query><Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Created'/><Value Type='DateTime' IncludeTimeValue='FALSE'>11/9/2014</Value></Eq></Where></Query></View>"
$cquery = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.CamlQuery
$cquery.ViewXml=$caml    
$listItems = $list.GetItems($cquery)
$ctx.Load($listItems)
$ctx.ExecuteQuery()
$newline
Write-Host  $listItems.Count
if ($listItems.Count -gt 0)
        #$listItems | % {$list.GetItemById($_.Id).DeleteObject()}        
        #$ctx.ExecuteQuery()
        Write-Host "All list items deleted from List." -foregroundcolor black -backgroundcolor green
else
        Write-Host "No Item in list: $($listname) to delete" -foregroundcolor black -backgroundcolor red

HI?
TRY to use query like this :
$query = "<query>
<where>
<eq>
<FieldRef Name="ID"
<Value Type="Number">$IDNum</value>
</eq>
</where>
</query>"
