Electors need not go through laborious process any more
Have you applied for inclusion in the electoral roll for the first time? And are you awaiting the Elector Photo Identity Card (EPIC) from the booth-level officer or are you unsuccessfully attempting this at an e-seva centre? You may soon receive it from the Election Commission of India (ECI) by post.
During an interaction, Chief Electoral Officer Satyabrata Sahoo said: “First-time voters need not wait for EPIC from the BLO or apply for EPIC through e-seva centres. They will receive them by post.” The CEO’s statement comes as a huge relief to those thronging e-seva centres, hoping to get their EPICs at the earliest.
In case of people infected with COVID-19 or suspected of being infected with the virus, they would be permitted to cast their votes wearing a PPE kit that would be provided by authorities. There are 76 counting centres in the state.
