This paper reinvigorates a powerful e-voting protocol which solves debated security issues. This scheme assures voter’s privacy & anonymity. We have reformed a protocol that integrates blind signature scheme, secret sharing technique and homomorphic encryption which ensures fair voting and eliminate criminal deception in voting. The initialization of this proposed protocol begins with identification of voters followed by authentication. With the inclusion of public proxy server we have successfully simulated our protocol which solves anonymity of the voters. The cryptographic approach securely transmits the vote of each voter in a high security lane. In the final phase of our protocol that begins with collection of votes; and by using homomorphic encryption we have secretly processed all the ballots in an encrypted form only. Due to this approach only the final computed result is revealed in encrypted form which is intelligible by using Secret sharing scheme.
