Adv Nizam Pasha: my vote cannot be checked once I have voted. There is not verification. Only under the statute will another vote will be cast and if that is accurate then my vote will be assumed to be accurate.
Court: there are so many assumptions. If the machines are made in a way that no one knows the identity of the voter, that is right

Adv Husaifa Ahmadi: just because it takes time to verify, that should not be a reason to not call for it to be verified.
If the VVPATs can be compared with actual numbers of votes polled then it shall be in the interest of free and fair elections. The EC should welcome this.

Adv: there is some confusion that 5% VVPATs have been used. But it is not, it was 5 machines per assembly constituency.
Only 5 units are been scrutinised. The percentage of VVPAT scrutiny is 0.00185%
Not even 1% must be close to 50% scrutiny. You have the machine and paper.
