(i) Election campaign:
- Sulekha should ensure that the candidates are not bribing the voters.
- She should ensure that no candidate appeals for votes in the name of caste and religion.
- She should make sure that no candidate uses government resources for campaigning.
- No candidate should be allowed to spend more than 25 lakhs in a constituency for the Lok Sabha elections.
(ii) Polling day:
- Sulekha should ensure that voting takes place in a fairway.
- No unfair means like booth capturing should take place.
- Once the polling is over, EVMs should be sealed and taken to a secure place.
(iii) Counting day:
- On a fixed day, only EVMs from constituency should be opened.
- The agents of all contestants should ensure that counting is done properly.
- If she finds any foul play, an objection can be raised to the Election Commission, which will verily it and may go for re-polling in that constituency.
