Abstract
Indian voting process is always being an important and complex task for the government of India. Each and every election time in country, government wants higher percentage of voting by its countrymen. One of the reason for the less voting in country is due to physical unavailability of the voter at voting location. Government makes every possible arrangement to each and every individual to be participate in voting but for this process, voter must be physically present at the location of voting which is not being possible for every voter. Many countries implemented automated e-voting system in some sense through various available technologies. In such automated voting environment, there are two important aspects, government wants to ensure that voter is authenticated properly via the system and voter wants this system trustworthy. For a government prospective, it becomes very necessary that government implements its automated voting system highly secure, accurate, and trustworthy. Only by assuring such parameters about the system, government can win the trust of voter. In this research paper, an end-to-end automated voting system is proposed using cryptography and blockchain technology. With the help of public–private key concept in cryptography, all communication are encrypted so that communication channel keeps flowing massages securely in network and using blockchain technology, flow of transactions becomes temper proof and secure.
