Election Commission Launches Nationwide Awareness Drive on EVMs and VVPATs for 2024 Lok Sabha Elections

In preparation for the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha Elections, the Election Commission initiates a widespread awareness programme on Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) and Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trails (VVPATs). Over 3,500 demonstration centres and nearly 4,250 mobile vans are deployed to educate voters about the fundamental features of EVMs and VVPATs. The initiative covers 3,464 Assembly Constituencies across 613 Districts in 31 States and Union Territories, emphasizing the step-by-step voting process and the verification of choices through VVPAT slips.
