New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Thursday sought the response of the Election Commission on petitions filed by Congress leaders seeking the use of voter-verified paper audit trail machines in randomly selected polling stations.

A bench of Justices A.K. Sikri and Ashok Bhushan posted the matter for further hearing to August 31.

Congress leaders Kamal Nath and Sachin Pilot have filed separate petitions seeking the use of VVPAT machines in "at least 10 per cent randomly selected polling stations" in each Assembly constituency in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan where elections will be held this year-end. The leaders believe this is needed to ensure free and fair polling.

The pleas filed through advocate Varun Chopra have alleged duplication in the voters' lists in the two states.

Paper trail or VVPAT machines allow voters to check if their vote went to the intended candidate and have become crucial following allegations of voting machine tampering in several recent elections.
