Elections in India are conducted almost exclusively using electronic voting machines developed over the past two decades by a pair of government-owned companies.These devices, known in India as Electronic Voting Machine (EVMs), have been praised for their simple design, ease of use, and reliability, but recently they have also been criticized following widespread reports of election irregularities.This project is made with the intention to authenticate the voters wherein their unique ID will be matched with the already available data of the voters.Added to this, a face detection and recognition system will also be used to check if that particular person corresponds to the one with that ID.The two matching points are used by a matching algorithm to check whether they are identical or not.If the results of the matching algorithm are two point match then checks wither this person has the right to vote or not.
