The randomization process is a crucial step in ensuring the fairness and transparency of the election process.

This process helps maintain the integrity of the elections by ensuring that the assignment of election duties and machines is free from any bias.

The second randomization process concluded successfully, and all stakeholders expressed their commitment to ensuring a smooth and fair electoral process.

The General Observer provided detailed information regarding all parameters of the randomization process to the representatives of political parties. He informed them that the EVMs brought from the warehouse to the constituencies are sent to the polling stations after several formalities. During the randomization process, a detailed report after random selection was distributed among the representatives of the political parties.

The EVMs, ballot units, and VVPATs were checked, and the pairing of election voting machines was conducted to ensure proper functioning. The randomization process was attended by RO AC 52-Doda, Sunil Kumar Bhutyal, RO AC 53-Doda West, Ashok Kumar Katoch, representatives of political parties, and officials of both constituencies.
