Poll Day Monitoring System

advertisement
Prepared by NIC-Rajnandgaon(CG)
Objective :
 Is to be able to build a smart report engine which will allow the poll to
be managed via the SMS .
 Computerized tracking of the election process with the critically
important objective of being able to take timely action in real time.
 It is an ‘Event based management system’ – from the time of dispatch
till the time of deposition of election material after return of parties.
 polling parties are distributed in remote locations, so the challenge is
to get the information timely
 Events can be of predetermined nature ( eg. polling party dispatched,
arrived etc.) or of non-predetermined nature (eg. Incidents of
violence). Both types of events need to trigger action on getting
recorded into the system.

be used for a wide range of applications. Although it
has the widest reach of all the mobile technologies

phone being busy does not matter to the sender of
SMSs.

This apart, there will be provision for reporting
the above poll information from District, Subdivision end through website. This facility should
be utilized in case SMS system fails both from
Polling Station and Sector end.
Prepared by NIC-Rajnandgaon(CG)
•PRO/PO must carry their mobile Phone and charger.
•After registration of mobile numbers of Presiding Officers and any one Polling Officers
of a Polling party, Subsequent reporting (like Safe Arrival, Mock Poll, Poll Start and so
on) through SMS should be sent from one mobile only.
•There is no need of sending SMS from both the mobile numbers at a time. It may
be noted that two mobile numbers for each polling station are registered taking note of
redundancy.
•If for some reasons one mobile fails to send SMS then only the other mobile
should be used.
•Each and every presiding Officer/Polling officer will register in a particular polling
station, then those presiding officer can update record to the registered polling station.
