The first Lok Sabha election in which each EVM was 100% backed by a VVPAT and in which physical verification of VVPAT slips has been done- concluded with a full clean chit to the machines.

Just as the verdict of the Lok Sabha election is loud and clear on May 23, so is the verdict on the much maligned EVMs and VVPATs.

The first Lok Sabha election in which each EVM was 100% backed by a VVPAT and in which physical verification of VVPAT slips has been done- concluded with a full clean chit to the machines.

Physical verification of VVPAT slips with the EVM count was done across over 20,000 polling station on May 23 before declaration of results as per Supreme Court orders.

As at 8:30 pm, with over 157 of the 542 results declared, there was not a single case found of a mismatch between the VVPAT slip and the EVM count, as per EC data.

Chief Electoral Officers across states submitted that there wasn’t a single mismatch reported anywhere- a record that has been maintained since VVPATs were first brought in from 2013-14 on pilot basis.

The Opposition had mounted an aggressive campaign questioning the credibility of EVMs and VVPATs, demanded 100% VVPAT count to counter alleged manipulation of EVMs and even demanded last minutes changes in the VVPAT tallying procedure for counting day- a demand that the Election Commission rejected.
