"EVM batteries have signatures of party representatives": CEC Rajiv Kumar discards Congress allegations
Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Rajiv Kumar said Electronic Voting Machines are totally «safe and robust,» and have batteries like a calculator, not like a mobile which will be charged everyday.
CEC Kumar explained that EVMs had three-layered security including the batteries and in each level signatures of political party representatives were taken to ensure transparency.
«People also ask, if pagers can be hacked then why can't EVMs be hacked? Pagers are connected but EVMs are not,» he said during a press conference while announcing the poll dates for Maharashtra and Jharkhand assembly elections on Tuesday.
Notably, Israel had hacked pagers of terrorist outfit Hezbollah.
He explained that the batteries put in EVMs are single-use batteries, and the signatures of each political party's representative are also taken on them.
