Objective :
 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.
Why sms ?

used for a wide range of applications. Although it has the
widest reach of all the mobile technologies today.
 Incorporates Time delay option, i.e. the recipients phone
being busy does not matter to the sender of SMSs.
