Citizens' Commission on Elections CCE report and analysis of voting systems in India
Channel: Hasgeek TV
Date: 2021-12-15

The Citizens’ Commission on Elections (CCE) was set up in March 2020 to critically analyse India’s electoral processes in accordance with democracy principles. We present here an analysis of the Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) and the Voter Verified Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) system, based on the first volume of the Commission’s report [Lokur et al., 2021]. The main recommendations of the report are a) modify the current design of the VVPAT system to make it truly ‘voter verified’ and b) move away from certification of election equipment to end-to-end verifiability of the election outcome, which requires a well-defined audit process of manual counting of a statistically significant sample of the VVPAT slips.
