The Supreme Court of India is set to issue directions on Wednesday regarding petitions calling for complete cross-verification of votes cast through Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) with Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT). This comes after the court reserved its order on the matter on April 18. The NGO ‘Association for Democratic Reforms’ (ADR), a petitioner in the case, has requested the reversal of the poll panel’s 2017 decision to replace the transparent glass on VVPAT machines with opaque glass, which allows voters to view the slip for only seven seconds when the light is on.
