- The Election Commission of India (ECI) has offered to engage with the petitioners demanding the immediate disclosure of authenticated voter turnout records.
- A case filed in SC to challenge ECI’s reluctance to publish Form 17C.
- 17C is a key electoral document that records votes cast at each polling station.
- Part I of it contains details such as the number of electors assigned to a polling station, registered voters, electors who did not vote, and total votes recorded on EVMs.
- Part II includes candidate-wise vote counts and is signed by polling agents before being checked by the returning officer.
- The Polling agents receive a copy of Form 17C at the end of polling, but ECI has historically not made it publicly available online.
