The Supreme Court of India has dismissed all petitions seeking 100% verification of votes cast using Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) with Voter Verified Paper Audit Trails (VVPATs). The court emphasized the credibility of EVMs and their integration with VVPATs, rejecting demands for a return to paper ballots or for tallying all paper slips as proof of voting. The verdict supports the authority of the Election Commission of India (ECI) over the electoral process and underscores the system's integrity, which has been established over years of use. The court also advised against blindly distrusting the poll process, stating that such suspicions are unwarranted.
