The District Election Officer of East Khasi Hills today organised a Systematic Voters Education and Electoral Participation (SVEEP) programme at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Meghalaya.
Eddy Ripnar, a member of the Meghalaya Model United Nations, shared about the apps that the Election Commission of India had recently launched, such as the Know Your Candidate (KYC) app and cVIGIL.
While the former gives voters pertinent information about their candidate, the latter is an anti-corruption app through which a member of the public can immediately and anonymously report to the Chief Electoral Officer regarding fraud, distribution of money during elections, etc.
