We would be logistically ready to hold simultaneous polls by September 2018, but it is up to the government to take a decision and make necessary legal amendments for it,” the election commissioner of India Rawat said.
Rawat said the officers involved in the poll process, right from the booth level to the national level, would be connected through the ERO network.
Besides, the facility can also be used for online registration by voters.
“ERO network would automatically detect duplicate registration of voters. Besides, officers from the booth level to the national level would be under one network and would be able to communicate with each other,” he said.
Explaining the utility of the app, he said the ERO network would effectively keep a check on duplication.
