Voter Registration  

Lok Sabha election 2024 are scheduled from April 19 to June 1. As the election dates are approaching, you must be curious about the various processes associated with voting.

cVIGIL app is an Android application, launched by ECI, which is designed to empower ordinary citizens to report violations of the Model Code of Conduct during the election period.

Earlier, NRIs did not have any voting privilege. However, an amendment to the Representation of the People Act in 2010 granted them the right to vote, with a stipulation that they must physically return to India and visit a polling booth to cast their vote.

The voting for Lok Sabha elections 2024 will start on April 19. This year India has over 1.8 crore new voters. First-time voters need to register to vote and ensure that their name is on the voter list.

In the modern era, where technology seamlessly integrates into our daily lives, it's no surprise that the electoral process has also embraced digital advancements. The Election Commission, an independent constitutional authority, plays a pivotal role in upholding the democratic fabric of our nation through the administration and oversight of free, fair, and transparent elections. Its commitment to enhancing voter engagement and participation is evident in the development of the Voter Helpline app, a tool designed to bridge the gap between the electoral body and the electorate.

Online voter registration and transparency campaign was started for the first time in the 2009 general election. 

The Prime Minister also spoke about National Voters’ Day and lauded the efforts of the Election Commission of India. He mentioned the hard work put in by the election officials to conduct the polls and strengthening the nation’s democracy
