Three Computer Engineering Students of an Indian University Develop a Blockchain-based Voting System

in #blockchaim5 years ago

Three Computer Engineering Students of an Indian University created a Blockchain-based Voting System which will allow casting of votes online, instead of the manual means of standing in a poll. The Hindu BusinessLine published this report on Oct. 21.

These students were from Malla Reddy Engineering College for Women. The reason behind the idea is to eliminate voting challenges in urban areas.

Shivani, who was part of the winning team Yodha from Malla Reddy Engineering College for Women, was quoted to say that:

“The poll percentages in rural areas are always higher than that of urban areas. Long queues at the polling stations is one of the reasons. Post winning the hackathon, we have been asked to test the solution in gated communities. It is very safe as it is backed by Blockchain technology. It is very difficult to break into this."
