India is strengthening its role as a global partner in election management, with New Delhi and Jakarta set to sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) covering election technology, institutional cooperation and the possible export of customised Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), official sources said on Tuesday.
The proposed agreement comes as Indonesia, the world's third-largest democracy with a population of nearly 288 million, looks to India for expertise in election management, technology and institutional capacity to modernise its electoral processes.
