When a voter presses a button in the EVM, a paper slip is printed through the VVPAT

Candidate Name

The slip contains the poll symbol, name and serial number of the candidate

It allows the voter to verify his/her choice. After being visible to the voter from a glass screen for 7 secs, the ballot slip will be cut and dropped into the box and a beep will be heard. VVPAT machines can be accessed by polling officers only.
