Abstract
Democracy plays a significant part in voting. If the voting process is not clear, stable and tamper proof, the integrity and legitimacy of the entire system is at risk. In recent years, neither civilians nor elected leaders have appreciated traditional ballots. Elections are surrounded by vote falsification, bribery and other voting problems. Often an individual must stand in a long line of people while casting votes and the procedure is quite lengthy. There has to be an exceptional feature of modern technologies to upgrade the existing system. Block chain provides the various features that will alter the scenario. But to implement ethereum based blockchain is expensive as for each transaction there is a computation cost. So we have used the sidechain concept to provide a cost effective blockchain based voting mechanism as sidechain extends the capabilities of blockchain by performing some operation besides it using duplicate currency and returns the result to mainchain for its use.
