 "Don't intend to make voter registration tool for India: Google")
Google on Wednesday said it did not intend to make a voter registration tool for India and had only made suggestions to the Election Commission on improving such a tool.
Google said it had made a formal presentation on Tuesday and discussed ways to "change the way users access their electoral information publicly available, which would make their experience simpler, faster and consistent through a national online look-up tool".
Reports suggested Google had made a formal presentation to the ECI proposing a tie-up with it for voter-facilitation services ahead of the Lok Sabha elections, a move questioned by several quarters citing security concerns. The Election Commission said it had not signed any agreement with the US-based company so far on voter facilitation initiatives.
