Supreme Court Issues Notice to EC and Centre over Cross-Verification of EVM and VVPAT | Oneindia
The Supreme Court of India has issued notice to the Election Commission regarding a plea seeking a thorough count of Voter-Verifiable Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) slips during elections.
Activist Arun Kumar Agrawal contends that current sequential verification causes undue delays and urges for simultaneous verification.
Agrawal stresses the necessity of tallying all VVPAT slips and allowing voters to physically deposit them for transparency in the electoral process.
The Maharashtra Assembly elections once again spotlighted the oppositionās habit of blaming EVMs when results donāt favor them. In Solapur's Markadwadi village, NCP(SP) supporters, upset over BJPās Ram Satpute leading locally despite Uttamrao Jankarās overall win, planned an illegal ballot āre-election.ā Authorities rightly shut it down, calling it anti-democratic. Ironically, EVMsāintroduced by Congressāare now their scapegoat. Locals dismissed the rhetoric, crediting Satputeās development work, with one saying, āHe earned his votes, no tampering needed.ā

Elon Musk took to X (formerly Twitter) to praise India's efficient and swift vote-counting process, contrasting it with the delays faced by California in finalising its election results. In his post, Musk highlighted how India, with its electronic voting machines (EVMs) and voter verifiable paper audit trails (VVPATs), was able to count a staggering 640 million votes in a single day during the recent elections. This stands in stark contrast to California, which has been struggling to count votes nearly 20 days after the election, largely due to complicated mail-in ballot procedures and decentralised local election systems. Musk emphasised the scalability and efficiency of India's centralised election oversight, led by the Election Commission, while criticising the slow and cumbersome system in California. His comments have sparked debate on the effectiveness of different electoral systems, with many praising India's handling of large-scale elections.
