Voter identification and registration process for people with disabilities (PwDs). Click here for more information

The Election Commission of India is working towards easing the voter identification and registration process for people with disabilities (PwDs) by offering them customized services. Under a new program, PwDs need to share their essential details with Election Commission via a specially designed app that they can easily download on their Android and iOS phones. For requesting any electoral services, the first-time voters will have to disclose their name, address, and mobile number along with their State, District & Assembly Constituency while the registered voters will have to provide their EPIC number mentioned on the top of their voter id card. Once they do that, a booth-level officer will visit them at home to fulfill other formalities. After that, it’s not long before Voter ID cards are dispatched to their address. Not only has this app also facilitated the PwDs to request for the wheelchair on the poll day.
