Hybrid Voting

In national elections, voter turnout hovers around 65%, meaning nearly 35% of eligible voters do not cast their votes. This is quite normal because political parties often secure power with just about 35% of the total votes cast, leaving a large portion of the population unrepresented. A major reason for this gap is the limitations of the current voting system, which primarily uses Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), is the geographical barrier.

Aadhaar, Bio-metrics & Privacy

Let me start with a question. What is the information that you are sharing with Government of India under Aadhaar which anyway you were not sharing? Biometrics – Fingerprint & Iris scans?

Why Coercion is the only and not valid argument against Mobile Voting

This is the only argument people use against Mobile Voting – Coercion (the action or practice of persuading someone to do something by using force or threats.)
