ENCORE: ECI designed in-house software for election management

The Election Commission of India (ECI) has designed in-house software for complete Candidate and election management through ‘ENCORE’.

  • The ENCORE 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.
  • The ENCORE Scrutiny Application allows Returning Officers to do scrutiny of the nominations filed by the candidates on-line. After verification of the nomination the status is marked as Accepted, Rejected or Withdrawn helping the Returning Officer to prepare the final list of contesting candidates and assign the symbols.
