Puliyabaazi Hindi Podcast पुलियाबाज़ी हिन्दी पॉडकास्ट[दुबारा] क्या EVM सुरक्षित हैं? The SOP and Technology of EVMs ft. Alok Shuklaये अंक २०१९ लोक सभा चुनाव के पहले प्रकाशित किया गया थाइलोन मस्क के EVM से जुड़े ट्वीट ने इस मशीन को एक बार फिर अख़बारों के प्रथम पृष्ठ पर ले आया है | तो पुलियाबाज़ी में हमने इस प्रश्न से हटकर मतदान प्रक्रिया को समझने का प्रयास किया | इस पुलियाबाज़ी में हमारे गेस्ट है श्री अलोक शुक्ला जो २००९ और २०१४ के बीच भारत के डिप्टी इलेक्शन कमिश्नर रह चुके हैं | उनकी किताब Electronic Voting Machines: The True Story इवीएम पर लग रही आलोचनाओं का मुँहतोड़ जवाब देती है | इस पुलियाबाज़ी में हमने उनके सामने यह सवाल रखे:* संसद चुनाव के लिए प्रक्रिया कब और कैसे शुरू होती है ?* चुनाव आयोग एक स्वतन्त्र संवैधानिक संस्था है - इस संरचना का ECI अफसरों पर आपके मुताबिक क्या फ़र्क पड़ता है? क्या सब पार्टियाँ चुनाव आयोग के पास चुगली करने आती रहती है?* EVM के आने से पहले क्या तकलीफें होती थी चुनाव करवाने में ?* EVM का आईडिया कब पहले आया? क्या क्या विरोध रहे है EVM के ख़िलाफ़?* EVM और राजनैतिक दलों का रिश्ता कैसा रहा है?* EVM की छवि सुधारने के लिए ECI को क्या करना चाहिए?In the 1971 General Elections, it was alleged that ballot papers were tampered with vanishing and reappearing ink such that the vote stamp miraculously disappeared from another candidate and reappeared against the Congress candidate instead. This is not different from today when political parties blame the Electronic Voting Machine for their losses. Elon Musk's recent tweet is another instantiation of this debate.So, in this episode, we investigate the Indian electoral process and the EVM itself. To help us understand this better, we are joined by Dr Alok Shukla, who served as Deputy Election Commissioner between 2009 and 2014. Dr Shukla has served as an international observer for elections in several countries and has been decorated with the Prime Minister’s Award for Excellence in Administration in 2010. His latest book, Electronic Voting Machines: The True Story, is an authoritative account of electronic voting machines.(This is a retelecast of an episode we recorded in 2019 before the Lok Sabha elections that year)सुनिए और बताइये कैसा लगा यह एपिसोड आपको।If you have any comments or questions, please write to us at puliyabaazi@gmail.com Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/puliyabaazi Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/puliyabaazi/ This is a public episode.

EVM के आने से पहले क्या तकलीफें होती थी चुनाव करवाने में ? EVM का आईडिया कब पहले आया? क्या क्या विरोध रहे है EVM के ख़िलाफ़? EVM और राजनैतिक दलों का रिश्ता कैसा रहा है? EVM की छवि सुधारने के लिए ECI को क्या करना चाहिए? In the 1971 General Elections, it was alleged that ballot papers were tampered using vanishing and reappearing ink such that the vote stamp miraculously disappeared from another candidate and reappeared against the Congress candidate instead. This is not different from today when political parties blame the Electronic Voting Machine for their losses. So in this episode, we investigate the Indian electoral process and the EVM itself. To help us understand this better, we are joined by Dr Alok Shukla who served as Deputy Election Commissioner between 2009 and 2014. Dr Shukla has served as an international observer for elections in several countries and has been decorated with the Prime Minister’s Award for Excellence in Administration in 2010. His latest book Electronic Voting Machines: The True Story is an authoritative account on electronic voting machines. सुनिए और बताइये कैसा लगा यह एपिसोड आपको और निश्चिंत होकर अपने उम्मीदवार को चुनिए २०१९ लोकसभा मतदान में | If you have any comments or questions please write to us at puliyabaazi@gmail.com Follow us on: Twitter: https://twitter.com/puliyabaazi Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/puliyabaazi Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/puliyabaazi/ Subscribe & listen to the podcast on iTunes, Google Podcasts, Castbox, AudioBoom, YouTube or any other podcast app. You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the new and improved IVM Podcast App on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/iosSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
