We are connecting an external device to EVM-VVPAT

a) after announcement of election date
b) after publication of candidate list
c) after both stages of randomisation.

No more stand-alone, no more a calculator & none of the process safeguards are effective anymore. @ECISVEEP
For a slightly detailed take, please watch

For a more detailed take, please watch (10' onwards)

Results, of this or any other election, whichever way it is, will not change the fact that we have seriously surrendered the safeguards of the pre-VVPAT design, while not reaping the benefits of a truly verifiable VVPAT design. You also know it @ECISVEEP. Address it ASAP.
At least have the guts to counter & file an FIR if what I am saying is wrong @ECISVEEP.

Or file an FIR against the CEC for deliberately misleading & cheating the public.

This silence doesn’t suit an organisation that was once headed by the likes of T N Seshan. @SpokespersonECI

ECI @ECISVEEP, it is a pity that instead of addressing the concerns raised, you are spending huge amount of money to market EVM-VVPAT.

As if it is a product to sell!

No amount of ad can fill the void created by unanswered questions.

Is EVM stand-alone or not? @SpokespersonECI
A 20 minute video on my concerns regarding the vulnerabilities of current EVM-VVPAT design.

On how it surrendered the strengths of pre-VVPAT EVM design & also did not bring in the checks of a true VVPAT design. What we have is a jugaad EVM-VVPAT now.

To all who are watching/reading these concerns, my humble request is to please don't link it to election results one way or the other. These are process concerns. And it will be there irrespective of which party wins.

Attended an interactive session in Bhagalpur today. #BiharDiaries
Then visit and interaction at Rajoun, Banka. #BiharDiaries
Also got a chance to visit Mandar hills and the temple there. Had no idea the Mandar parvat of Samudra Manthan fame is situated in Banka. That was a pleasant surprise.

So @ECISVEEP finally to replies to an RTI by @OfficialSauravD on my letter.

They say nothing new.

But this is good. Very good.😋

For now they state as to what they rely on to say EVM-VVPAT is safe.

And all of it can be demolished with ECI's own documents. @SpokespersonECI 1/n
Take a good look at the reply once again.

Does @ECISVEEP say that EVM is a stand-alone machine anywhere?

No right?

For they know that their lies have been exposed on that.

You won't hear that argument from @SpokespersonECI anymore. 2/n
It says "The basis of @ECISVEEP's confidence flows from a wide range of administrative protocols and procedural safeguards that protect EVMs and VVPATs against any sort of manipulation.."

And goes on to present only two key safeguards. 3/n

Dear PM @narendramodi, please ensure your IT cell employees are given decent wages.

They say that current rate for likes & RTs are very low. And during covid it is getting difficult.

When your side-kick @AmitShah can get his son placed in a luxurious job, this is highly unfair.
You make a lot of money from electoral bonds & stuff. But most of it spent on opposition for buying MLAs after elections.

A small portion of it can be used to provide a decent wage to the 1000s who are working day & night for you dear PM @narendramodi. They really need it.
On top of that heard that this time around they had a voluntary Mandir donation cut also. "Voluntary" like the mandatory covid salary cut of Govt employees.

Many hadn't even earned as much as they had to donate. I am sure dear PM @narendramodi, you will take note of it.

ECI @ECISVEEP, this is something explosive uploaded at CEO Karnataka website.

It says that BU is connected to the Printer (VVPAT) & that VVPAT is then connected to the CU.

So the VVPAT which was connected to an external device is what actually casts vote in CU. Is this true?
To make it easier for you to take down, please find the link at ceokarnataka.kar.nic.in/pdfs/elections…. A document uploaded on CEO-Karnataka NIC website. @ECISVEEP, @SpokespersonECI any comments?

Taking it down is useless though. It is also archived at web.archive.org/web/2021021412…
Question then not only is why you are silent, but why are you deliberately misleading voters @ECISVEEP, @SpokespersonECI?

I am sharing some slides from your own presentation before 2019 PC elections. Link: ceokarnataka.kar.nic.in/PCELE2019/Pres…
