EVM wins again: SC rejects all petitions seeking 100% cross verification by VVPAT slips, refuses to allow paper ballots
On Friday, the Supreme Court dismissed all petitions demanding a 100% verification of all votes cast using Electronic Voting Machines with Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trails, or VVPATs, and going back to paper ballots. Justice Khanna delivered the verdict, stating that the court had thoroughly studied the procedures and technical factors and hence dismissed the request for 100% verification of EVM votes with VVPAT slips. The second instruction said that the burnt memory semi-controller in 5% of EVMs, i.e., the ballot unit, control unit, and VVPAT, per assembly segment of the parliament constituency, must be checked and certified by an EVM manufacturer’s engineering staff. On Wednesday, the Supreme Court while highlighting the autonomy of the Election Commission of India observed that they don’t control the elections and the poll body has cleared doubts regarding EVMs.
