Abstract

India is a proven democracy but often it is a result of uninformed and uneducated choices. Right to information has been one of our basic right but we fail to execute it when we need it the most that is when we elect our future leaders [1]. With Digital India the dream to make our country a digitally empowered nation is not very far-fetched [2]. Here we propose a system that stays true to the vision of e-Governance and ensures a collaborative digital platform for facilitating people to select right candidates during elections through the use of information technology available and empower participative governance [11].
