Seeking to ensure increased monitoring of the poll procedure on voting days, the Election Commission (EC) on Monday (June 16, 2025) decided to carry out webcasting at all polling stations, up from the present 50%.
The webcasting data will be for internal consumption of the poll authority.
Bihar Assembly elections are due later this year and it will be the first state where 100% webcasting will be implemented.
In a communication to all State chief electoral officers, the poll panel said webcasting will be done in areas with internet connectivity.
"However, in shadow areas, suitable alternate arrangements of videography, photography, etc. may be made," it said.
