'We can go back to paper ballots': Supreme Court discusses issues with VVPAT system

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 16 April 2024
VVPAT is a system that allows voters to verify if their vote has been cast correctly and counted towards the candidate they intended to support. The VVPAT produces a paper slip that is securely stored and can be accessed in case of any disputes or discrepancies. In light of the concerns and doubts raised by the opposition regarding the Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) system, petitions have been filed demanding the cross-verification of each vote cast.
