Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) are being used in India since 2004 for all general elections. It mainly saves ___________.
Answer: A
The answer is approximately 1,50,000 trees that are required to be cut to make ballot papers for every general election.
Since 2004 India has used Electronic Voting Machines in place of paper ballots in every general election. The figure in this option is the one the school civics account gives for the saving: about 1,50,000 trees that would otherwise be cut down to make the paper for printing ballot papers.
The other options are not what EVMs mainly save. They do not reduce the effort of local people, voting itself takes about as long, and they have nothing to do with money passed illegally to buy votes, which is a matter of election law and its enforcement, not of how votes are recorded.
