It is the classic picture flashed across the world during every Indian general election-smiling voters holding up a finger daubed with blue ink， showing off for having voted in the world’s largest democratic exercise.
Voting in this year’s general election started on 11 April. It lasted for six weeks to ensure that some 900 million Indians get the chance to cast their votes. But its first step was to get in touch with a small company in Mysore， in the country’s south， and order vast amounts of a special kind of ink.
The ink is essential to the nation’s democratic process. It is indelible， thus pre-venting electoral cheating and double voting. Drawn with a brush or stick on the nail and cuticle of the forefinger of the left hand， it is designed to last for weeks， until a new nail grows.
