Distributed Server Approach for Novel E-Voting System with Biometric Authentication using Aadhaar Card

India is the largest democratic country where voting and elections are fundamental to any consensus-based society. In India we use the most popular voting system called as an electronic voting system (EVM) for its easy access and less time consuming features. But yet this voting system is not at all efficient and secured one. To reduce these disadvantages, we suggest a new e-voting system which fulfills the security requirements of voting process. For security porpose we use Aadhaar card in this system which is already distributed to all indian citizens by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI). Aadhaar is a 12 digit random number which is called as User Identification of Authority of India. In this model the voter authentication can be done by using biometric information (Thumb impression) which is pre-stored at the government database. The significance of adding thumb impression results in exact authencation of voter before casting of vote. The extra feature of this model is that the voter will ensure if his/her vote has gone to correct candidate/party. The main advantage of this system is, it is based on a distributed server approach, which will ultimately add the accuracy of casting of votes and reduce long distance travelling to cast a vote.
