ECI documents say 17.4 lakh VVPATs were kept ready to be used in GE 2019 and the assembly elections of 4 states which held simultaneously.
EC documents say, the candidates’ details and symbols will be loaded in to EVMs & VVPATs by BEL and ECIL engineers using their laptops (1/n)
Again, EC says, the engineers who upload the details to VVPAT will have a special software in their laptop.
As per ECI, the details should be loaded on to EVMs & VVPATs after the last day of withdrawal of candidature and before 8-10 days of election date. (2/n)
Even if we take the very next day of the last day of withdrawal of canditure in the 1st phase of election- which was 29 March - and 10 days before the final date of poll - 9 May - as last day, ECIL & BEL had 42 days to set 17.4 lakh VVPATS.(3/n)
That is an average of 41,428 VVPAT settings/day.
Here the question is, what is the strength of qualified engineers with both these PSUs to do this job?
Most probably, this job was outsourced. Then, who did the background verification of these engineers? Was it done? (4/n)
Who made sure that all those who did this work did not have any political affiliation? Did anyone verify the software uploaded in these laptops were infected with any kind of malware or trojan?

Will ECI ever clarify on these things in clear terms and be transparent? (5/5)
