Will Northeast guard against by poll malpractices that Kerala had cent percent used successfully during 2019 and this year 2021 bringing down dark side of various parties when cVIGIL app goes active in the state?

 

Yes, in Northeast now cVIGILapp is active where on fresh picture and video upload basis against malpractices of Model Code of Conduct (MCC) by any party candidates the voters can intimate with surveillance teams.

 

This makes every voters potential like the administration if they play actively with honest intention in uploading correct information regarding violence and violation of expenditure that are against Model Code of Conduct practices, where of now Kerala is the only active state in using potentially this app with 64,000 complaints by 2019 Lok Sabha election with filter of 58,000 genuine cases.

 

Once the image or video with detail highlighted in the app, the information comes under the scrutiny of district control room, Statistic Surveillance Teams, returning officer and field verification unit such as flying squad to help them take swift action against genuine cases and help conduct fair polls.

 

Public of Kerala had used cVIGIL app as weapon to discard fraud political activities during poll process and presently more than 11000 complaints are active to help field verification unit to investigate on the charges and reach the spot on time for prompt reaction. But whether such action could be seen here in Northeast and voters’ active usage of this app is another matter as fresh is the case about cVIGIL app.

But how fairly this cVIGIL app to proof fruitful in Northeast only time will tell as smart phone is not popularly used by the population here apart from active participation and awareness about fair poll with MCC code of conduct?
