This paper presents a new secret sharing scheme for identification of cheaters in the elections. In a proposed scheme secret image (voter ID) is embedded into cover image (Indian emblem) of same size and generates n stego images. The resulting stego images are visually good and look like a cover image. Various image quality metrics are used to assess the quality of stego images. Out of n stego images only last two stego images are required to reconstruct the secret and cover images without any loss. The proposed scheme offers high embedding capacity. Experimental results of proposed scheme shown to be superior in terms of PSNR and visual quality than existing schemes.
