"Dream, Dream, Dream! Conduct these dreams into thoughts, and then transform them into action."
- Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
A high-powered committee comprising of home minister Rajnath Singh, finance minister Arun Jaitley , Defence minister Manohar Parrikar, road transport and highways minister Nitin Gadkari and law and justice minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, constituted by Prime Minister Modi, has approved a major electoral reform. From now onwards, booth-wise results will remain a secret and the practice of revealing booth-wise results within constituencies is being discontinued. "Totaliser Machines" will now mix the votes polled in different electronic voting machines. This move will save the voters from pre-poll intimidation and harassment or post-poll victimization and favoritism, based on their voting patterns.
