NEW DELHI / AGARTALA, May 21 (TIWN): The final results of Lok Sabha election 2019 might be announced around 10 pm on 23rd May. The delay is because the tallying of the voter-verified paper audit trail (VVPAT) slips with EVM count has increased from one to five per assembly segment, following the Supreme Court order.
The SC on April 8 had instructed the Election Commission (EC) to increase the VVPAT slips tally of at least five EVMs from the earlier one EVM per assembly segment in a Lok Sabha constituency
This process of counting is expected to take well over five hours per constituency because the physical verification will be done sequentially for five EVMs. The counting of VVPAT slips per EVM takes up to one hour.
