The Supreme Court postponed the hearing on EVM verification to February 11, following concerns about the Election Commission’s compliance with its earlier directive. The case relates to an application by the Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR) seeking verification of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs). The adjournment allows further time to address the compliance issues raised. The matter remains critical for ensuring transparency in the electoral process.

The Supreme Court of India on Friday (13th Dec) suggested that a petition regarding electronic voting machines (EVM) verification be referred to the same bench that ruled in April 2024, affirming EVM security. Petitioners seek to establish a clear verification protocol, requesting the Election Commission to verify EVM components within eight weeks without disputing election results.
