— In a major step toward digital democracy, the Election Commission of India (ECI) has unveiled ECINet, a unified digital platform that brings together all election-related services under one roof.
The announcement came alongside the declaration of the Bihar Assembly Election 2025 schedule, with polling set to take place in two phases — November 6 and November 11, and results to be announced on November 14.
What makes this election truly special, however, is the technology behind it.
One Portal, Endless Possibilities
Developed by merging 40 different election-related applications into one integrated platform, ECINet marks a new era in India’s electoral system.
Now, voters won’t need to juggle multiple apps or websites — all election services will be accessible through a single portal or mobile app.
