The Central Information Commission (CIC) has expressed "severe displeasure" over the Election Commission (EC)'s failure to respond to a Right to Information (RTI) plea. Noted technical professionals and academicians, including professors from Indian institutes of technology (IITs) and former civil servants, had written to the EC posing questions about the credibility of EVMs and VVPAT machines during elections. The representation was submitted to the EC on May 2, 2022.
