During hearing on 25 March , Supreme Court asked
Election Commission to examine the possibility of carrying out 100 % verification of
paper slips , as demanded by the Opposition parties
Last week , EC came back and said :
Even 50
% verification will delay the declaration of election results by 6 days
Hence, 100 % verification was out of question
Observing that the
current confidence level in EVM-VVPAT accuracy was 99.9936%, the ECI said any increase in the sample size of verification of
VVPAT slips would only lead to a “ very negligible gain in the confidence level
”.
Now, it is too late
for the upcoming elections within the next few days , but I urge
EC to consider following suggestion for the next election ( even the very next State Election ) :
Just above the EVM
, mount a CCTV camera , which is connected with the EVM and gets actuated as
soon as the voter presses any button on the EVM
Using “ Close Up /
Zoom In “ , the camera will capture a very sharp and focussed image of the
paper slip which is below the glass panel and displays following details :
# Candidate Serial Number
# Candidate Name
# Candidate’s photo
Using Image Processing Software
,
This IMAGE will get converted into TEXT,
- and
Get added to “ Verification Database of EVM # ABC “
[ - with the latest
Facial Recognition technology available commercially, this will pose no
problem ]
Each IMAGE – and its
corresponding TEXT will carry a “ System Time Stamp “
When voting at a
booth gets over at the end of the day , this entire database is tallied with the number of votes
registered
That 100 % verification , would take a few seconds !
That “ 100 % Electronic Audit Tally [ EAT ], will be immediately shown
to the representatives of all the Political parties who are authorized by the
EC to remain present inside the booth
And they will be
required to sign a EAT declaration , confirming the results shown to them
No more arguments /
disputes !
