The delay in announcing the voter turnout has led to concerns among voters and political parties about the correctness of such data.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The application has sought directions to the ECI to upload scanned, legible copies of Form 17C Part-I (Account of Votes Recorded), on its website. Additionally, disclosure of the Part- II of Form 17C which contains the candidate-wise result of counting after the compilation of results. It was alleged that there has been a dereliction of duty on the part of the ECI in declaring election results through Electronic Voting Machines (&#8216;EVMs&#8217;) based on accurate and indisputable data.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The ECI submitted that there is no legal right that can be claimed towards publishing final authenticated data of voter turnout in all polling stations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court clarified that no opinion is expressed on merits apart from the prima facie view.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Source:
