 Abstract Iris based E-voting system using Aadhar database is a method for safe and secure aadhaar based electronic voting system using
 iris identification. Iris is one of the unique identities of a human being this is being used in the aadhar system. By using arduino software iris of
 every individual is being captured. The polling of the vote is transmitted to PC through arduino communication. Iris of the person captured is
 compared to aadhar database. We also know about individual persons full details in the personal computer. By using this method the voter will
 ensure if his/her vote has gone to correct candidate/party. The votes are going to be done automatically.
 Keywords     : Arduino, Iris scanner, Aadhar database.
