There is an entire set of well-laid out procedures for counting of votes that are mainly intended to maintain fairness. There is a lot of paper work even when the counting of vote goes on.
Each round of counting has to be authenticated before being released for publication. The observer is the key man because without his clearance, the returning officer cannot declare the result of a particular Assembly constituency.
The Public Relations Department will provide live information on the counting trends through its mobile application.
Minute-by-minute trends and results of the 140 Assembly constituencies will be available on the mobile app.
The home page of the PRD website will carry State-wide details of the various coalitions, their lead and the seat they win.
