Why voting in upcoming election matters!

Terror attacks continue masterminds of 26/11 sit safely in Pakistan! Weak foreign policy Pak provokes, China intrudes, Lanka & Nepal snub, the I in BRIC is now Indonesia! Rising prices Oil, grains, onion Common mans life is miserable ! No disaster management Kedarnath mishap was the worst India witnessed. Crumbling infrastructure only 1600 km/year national highway added v/s 4763 km/year by NDA govt. Power generation projects delayed. Message is clear : India needs a change - a better Government this time ! Ensure you are registered to vote , next general elections could happen soon!

Why vote - mujhe kya?

Whats in it for me.

Below 30 yrs : Shape the India of your dreams a developed, secure nation which commands respect in the world. (65 % of our population is below 35!!) Age 30-50 : Its all about the economy! Hand-outs alone wont solve anything, but growth which creates jobs, will. Above 50 : You have seen it all - pro-poor & secularist rhetoric is the last refuge of crooks! Time to bequeath a better legacy to the next generation.
50% of youth in 18-24 age bracket are NOT registered to vote!

Women can influence their family members and house maids to vote for the right party.

Women can drive the change for a clean and transparent politics.

How to Vote?
To exercise your franchise, your name should be in the electoral roll.
You cannot vote without registration of your name in the Assembly Constituency (AC) for the area you reside. Therefore, its your duty to find out whether your name has been registered or not.

What is an electoral roll?

An electoral roll is a list of all eligible citizens who are entitled to cast their vote in elections. The electoral rolls are prepared Assembly Constituency (AC) wise. An electoral roll for any Assembly Constituency is subdivided into as many parts as the polling booths. The Election Commission of India has set a limit of 1200 electors per booth. Polling booths are so set up that no voter travels more than 2 kms to reach the booth.

How to check name in electoral roll?

Election Commission of India (ECI) has directed the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of each state to publish online the electoral roll for each Assembly Constituency (AC) in their state.

Links to the different CEO sites can be seen at http://eci.gov.in/eci_main1/Linkto_electo_search.aspx

If you dont know which AC your address falls under, check with a volunteer or look up the AC list at http://ceo.maharashtra.gov.in/acs.php If your name does not show in the electoral roll for your constituency OR details like name, address, sex, age are incorrect, you need to fill out form 6/8/8A.

EPIC
Do you have an Electors Photo Identity Card (EPIC)?
The Election Commission of India has made voter identification
mandatory at the time of poll.

The electors have to identify themselves with either Electors Photo Identity Card (EPIC) issued by the Commission or any other government issued identity proof (driving license, PAN card etc) as prescribed by the Commission.

Will possession of an EPIC alone entitle you to vote?

Mere possession of an EPIC does not guarantee you can vote, it is mandatory that your name appears in the electoral roll. Having your name in the electoral roll and possessing an ID proof (EPIC or others), you become entitled to vote.
