What concern has been raised regarding the use of the Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) system?
Correct Answer: B — Its software and verification process lack adequate transparency
Explanation:
The VVPAT system's software is centrally installed and connected to the EVM control unit. However, the process of random tallying between VVPAT slips and electronic votes is considered arbitrary, raising doubts about transparency. The Election Commission's limited disclosure on VVPAT functioning has led to public and political concerns about the integrity and openness of the voting system.
