As
the time is running short for polling, all political parties are engaged in
conducting rigorous election campaigns and to get in touch with all their
constituency people. But as per the Election Commission orders all the parties
must wind up their election campaigning before a week from poling date. For
this reason, the need or emergency for conducting election campaigning through
video conferencing came into existence.
Through
virtual conferencing, politicians are able to address multiple locations people
from anywhere. In accordance with the Sunshine law, no public attendee is
supposed to attend a public meeting of a government official through video
conferencing. But the government official can participate in video
conferencing, where-in the leader must physically address a public meeting at a
place and then through video conferencing such leader can communicate with
various other location people where a public meeting organized under the
surveillance of the officials at that constituency.
The
communication equipment installed at the physical location where the leader is
addressing the people comprises of an audio and visual display, and a camera
and microphone so that the member(s) of the government-community can participate
via video conferencing, the people government whole body in actual presence,
and the community in actual presence may actively participate in the conference
in accordance with rules of conference decorum. The communication equipment at
the geographic location of the conference must allow for all conference
attendees to see, hear, and fully communicate with the video conferencing
participants.
Through
video conferencing, the government authorized leaders have the eligibility to
virtually utilize their vote power if he/she is not available to physically
attend the polling booth and register their vote. If any component of
conference communication fails during the conference, the member attending the
conference by video conferencing whose connection failed shall be considered
absent immediately upon such failure, and if the community government body
system was in the act of voting, the voting shall stop until all of the
components of virtual conference presence are again restored and it clip
conference participant’s presence is again noted in the minutes.
