MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641062388 A) filed by Bvrit Hyderabad College Of Engineering For Women; and Dr. M. Indrasena Reddy, Hyderabad, Telangana, on May 16, for 'block chain-based secure decentralized voting system.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. M. Indrasena Reddy; Ms. M. Akshara; Ms. V. Chandupriya; Ms. K. Anusri; and Ms. K. Geetha Reddy.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Blockchain-Based Secure Decentralized Voting System is developed to provide a secure, transparent, and tamper-resistant platform for conducting digital elections using blockchain technology. The system addresses major limitations of traditional voting methods such as manual errors, centralized control, duplicate voting, unauthorized access, and lack of transparency in result management. By integrating a user-friendly web application with Algorand blockchain and smart contracts, the proposed system ensures secure election handling and trustworthy vote recording. The application supports two main roles: administrator and voter. The administrator can create elections, configure voting options, manage election details, fund the blockchain application account, and register eligible voters using wallet address and roll-number mapping. The voter can securely connect a registered blockchain wallet, complete the opt-in process, verify credentials, and cast a vote through the voting interface. Smart contracts automatically validate voter eligibility, enforce a one-vote-per-wallet mechanism, and securely store votes on the blockchain ledger. The decentralized architecture enhances transparency, security, auditability, and reliability of the election process while reducing manual intervention and chances of manipulation. The system demonstrates the practical application of blockchain technology in developing reliable digital voting solutions suitable for academic institutions and organizational elections."
