Project Overview
The Online Election System is a comprehensive web-based platform designed to digitalize and streamline the election process in India. This project effectively incorporates various types of elections, such as Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha, providing citizens with a secure and accessible way to participate in democratic processes online. It enables voters to register for a Voter ID Card, cast votes, and allows political parties and candidates to register through an official, structured documentation process—replicating real-world procedures.
Key Features
- Voter Registration: Citizens can apply for a voter ID card through the system.
- Candidate & Party Registration: Political parties and individual candidates (MLAs) can register with proper documentation.
- Election Management: The Election Commission acts as the central authority, overseeing processes such as election announcements, voter notifications, and result declarations.
- Secure Voting Mechanism: Ensures transparency, security, and authenticity in the voting process.
- Automated Notifications: Sends email alerts to voters regarding election schedules, registrations, and important updates.
- Admin Dashboard: A dedicated panel for the Election Commission to manage elections, registrations, and system configurations.
Technologies Used
The project is built using ASP.NET with C#, integrated with MS SQL Server for database management. Additional tools such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery enhance the frontend experience, making the system user-friendly and visually appealing. Email integration is implemented to provide timely updates to voters and candidates.
Project Role & Development
Developed during the final year of Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA), this project aims to closely mirror India’s current election system. The frontend design and backend development were meticulously structured to ensure an intuitive, robust, and functional election experience online.
