- The election Commission of India (ECI) has developed a prototype for the Remote Electronic Voting Machine (RVM) aimed to facilitate voting for domestic migrants across India.
- The RVM will be a stand-alone system, not connected to the internet, and based on existing electronic voting machines.
- The goal of the RVM is to increase voter participation and make it easier for domestic migrants to participate in elections.
- The RVM is a multi-constituency electronic voting machine that can handle up to 72 constituencies from a single remote polling booth.
- It is based on the time-tested M3 (Mark 3) EVMs and will be used to enable voting at remote polling stations for domestic migrants.
- The Representation of the People Act, 1950 and 1951, The Conduct of Election Rules, 1961, and The Registration of Electors Rules, 1960 will need to be amended to introduce remote voting.
