Bihar's AI E-Voting System: Fraud-Proof or Vulnerable?

  • Bihar unveiled India's first mobile-based AI-driven remote voting system at AI Summit 2026, developed by C-DAC and State Election Commission.
  • The 'e-Voting SECBHR' app targets migrant workers, students, seniors, pregnant women, and PwDs, allowing remote voting via Android devices.
  • System uses OTP, live selfie verification with AI facial recognition against EPIC ID, liveness detection, dual encryption, and blockchain for security.
  • Blockchain ensures tamper-proof votes by encrypting and anonymizing each vote in a decentralized ledger, making alteration practically impossible.
  • Concerns include potential impersonation, influence within households, facial recognition failures, Android-only access, and data privacy issues.
