EVM News: Elon Musk's Social Media Post on EVM Tampering Sparks Outrage, Former Minister Answers

Elon Musk advised against using electronic voting machines (EVMs) due to hacking risks, sparking debates on their security amid irregularities in Puerto Rico's primaries. However, India defended its third-generation M3 EVMs as tamper-proof, with no connectivity and oversight from IIT experts and the Election Commission. The Supreme Court issued directives to further strengthen EVM security while rejecting demands for 100% VVPAT verification. #ElonMusk #EVMs #EVMHacking #BallotPaper #ElonMuskNews #PuertoRico #IndianElections2024 #Indianews #RajeevChandraShekhar #Worldnews #Oneindia #Oneindianews ~HT.178~ED.155~GR.125~
