EMCORE by ECI

November 7, 2023

The Election Commission of India has designed in-house software for complete Candidate and election management through ‘ENCORE’ which stands for Enabling Communications on Real-time Environment.
This provides a seamless facility for Returning Officers to process candidate nomination, affidavit, Voter turnout, counting, results and data management.
The ENCORE counting application is an end-to-end application for returning officers to digitize the votes polled, tabulate the round-wise data and then take out various statutory reports of counting.
Another application called ENCORE Scrutiny Application allows Returning Officers to do scrutiny of the nominations filed by the candidates on-line.
An application called candidate Affidavit portal is for displaying information about a candidate’s finances, assets and their liabilities.
Through the ENCORE Nodal App, various departments like fire, education, police, environment, CPWD give ‘no objection’ certificate before any permission request from political party or candidates, received for holding rallies, road shows and meetings.
