Only a day after Amit Shah kept in touch with the Law Commission looking for parallel elections for Lok Sabha and Assembly, the Election Commission clarified that it isn’t conceivable to hold synchronous surveys one year from now. The CEC refered to specialized issues as the purpose behind not ready to gather information.
We don’t have enough VVPATs to gather information, Chief Election Commissioner OP Rawat said. It is evaluated that 34 lakh ballot units, 26 lakh control units and 27 lakh VVPAT (voter-evident paper review trail) machines would be required. The EC can’t put in a request for extra machines without essential lawful system.
This need required changes in the significant laws, including revisions to the Constitution. After the lawful structure endorses the concurrent surveys, the EC needs to evaluate the extra prerequisite of EVMs and VVPAT units and present a financial plan to the administration for getting the furthermore required machines and after that need to submit a request with the manufacturers .
Simply after this long strategy, the makers will begin the generation. With almost no time for 2019 general races, the odds of synchronous surveys look dreary. For novices, Ballot and Control Units of the EVMs will be conveyed by the two PSU producers – Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL) and Electronics Corporation of India Ltd (ECIL). As of now, the VVPAT conveyance is said to be behind the schedule.
