Electronic Voting Machines ("EVM") are being used in Indian General and State Elections to implement electronic voting in part from 1999 elections and in total since 2004 elections. The EVMs reduce the time in both casting a vote and declaring the results compared to the old paper ballot system. There were earlier claims regarding EVMs' tamparability and security which have not been proved.〔〔〔 After rulings of Delhi High Court, Supreme Court〔 and demands from various political parties,〔 Election Commission decided to introduce EVMs with Voter-verified paper audit trail (VVPAT) system.〔 The Voter-verified paper audit trail (VVPAT) system was introduced in 8 of 543 parliamentary constituencies as a pilot project in Indian general election, 2014.〔http://www.dnaindia.com/mumbai/report-evm-paper-trail-introduced-in-8-of-543-constituencies-1982463〕 ==History== In 1980, M. B. Haneefa invented the first Indian voting machine, gazetted "Electronically operated vote counting machine" (Gazette: 191/Mas/80, 15 October 1980). His original design (using Integrated Circuits) was exhibited to the public in Government Exhibitions held in six cities across Tamil Nadu. The EVMs were commissioned in 1989 by Election Commission of India in collaboration with Electronics Corporation of India Limited.〔(Tamil writer Sujatha is dead )〕 The Industrial design of the EVMs were faculty members at the Industrial Design Centre, IIT Bombay.〔http://www.idc.iitb.ac.in/index.html〕 The EVMs were first used in 1998 in the by-election to North Paravur Assembly Constituency in Kerala for a limited number of polling stations.〔 Used in Hazaribagh District. 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Indian voting machines」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
