Sikkim: It is for the first time that the Electoral Process for the State of Sikkim has been computerized by the NIC Sikkim State Unit.
The Project, completed within a time frame of three months included the designing of a Database and Forms for data entry as well as retreival of the data by the Users. The data from the electoral rolls from the last Assembly Elections formed the basis of the current database. The existing data was reprocessed and additional data was entered at the lowest Panchayat level.
A separate Database comprising of the reservation distribution listing (Panchayat-wise, Zilla Panchayat-wise, District-wise and State-wise) was also provided to the State Election Commission. The Database was succesfully used at the Sikkim State Panchayat Elections held recently. The existing data can be easily upgraded and used in the next elections as well as by the other Government Departments as per the requirements.
