ECINet Digital Platform: Election Commission Opens Month-Long Public Consultation to Make ECINet App More User-Friendly
The Election Commission of India (ECI) has invited citizens across the country to contribute suggestions aimed at enhancing its newly-developed ECINet digital platform.
New Delhi, November 29: The Election Commission of India (ECI) has invited citizens across the country to contribute suggestions aimed at enhancing its newly-developed ECINet digital platform. According to the ECI press note issued on Saturday, the poll panel has opened a month-long window, from November 27 to December 27, for users to download the ECINet mobile application and share feedback through the dedicated “submit a suggestion” tab.
The ECINet App, currently in its trial phase, was deployed during the Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 and several recent bye-elections. “This new platform enabled better voter services, quicker availability of polling percentage trends and also the publication of Index Cards within 72 hours of the close of polls, an exercise that previously took several weeks or months,” the ECI said in its press note. “Learnings from the Bihar elections and feedback from CEOs, DEOs, EROs, Observers, and field officials is being incorporated to further enhance the platform’s functionality,” it said. ‘They Are Outright Lies’: Abhishek Banerjee Accuses Election Commission of ‘Selective Leaks’, Seeks ‘Full Answers’ and CCTV on West Bengal SIR.
The ECI highlights that all suggestions received during the feedback period will be evaluated before the App is upgraded for its official launch, which is scheduled for January 2026. The initiative is part of the Commission’s broader effort to expand transparency and strengthen voter convenience through digital innovation. The project has been led by Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, along with Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi.
