OFFICE OF CHIEF ELECTORAL OFFICER, HARYANA
The 12th March, 2019
No. 212(Alt.Doc)/LSElec-2019/2AE-2473.—
ELECTION COMMISION OF INDIA
Nirvachan Sadan, Ashoka Road, New Delhi-110001
No. 3/4/ID/2019/SDR/VOL.I
The 28th February, 2019
ORDER
1.
Whereas, Section 61 of the Representation of the People Act, 1951 provides that with a view to preventing
impersonation of electors, so as to make the right of genuine electors to vote under section 62 of that Act more
effective, provisions may be made by rules under that Act for use of Electors Photo Identity Card for electors as the
means of establishing their identity at the time of polling; and
2.
Whereas, Rule 28 of the Registration of Electors Rules, ,1960, empowers the Election Commission to direct,
with a view to preventing impersonation of electors and facilitating their identification at the time of poll, the issue of
Electors Photo Identity Card to electors bearing their photographs at State cost; and
3.
Whereas, Rules 49H(3) and 49K (2) (b) of the Conduct of Elections Rules, 1961, stipulate that where the
electors of a constituency have been supplied with Electors Photo Identity Card under the said provisions of Rule 28
of the Registration of Electors Rules, 1960, the electors shall produce their Electors Photo Identity Card at the polling
station and failure or refusal on their part to produce those Electors Photo Identity Card may result in the denial of
permission to vote; and
4.
Whereas, a combined and harmonious reading of the aforesaid provisions of the said Act and the Rules, makes
it clear that although the right to vote arises by the existence of the name in the electoral roll, it is also dependent upon
the use of the Electors Photo Identity Card, where provided by the Election Commission at State cost, as the means of
establishing their identity at the time of polling and that both are to be used together; and
5.
Whereas, the Election Commission made an Order on the 28th August, 1993, directing the issue of Electors
Photo Identity Card (EPIC) to all electors, according to a time bound programme; and
6.
Whereas, Electors Photo Identity Cards have been issued to more than 99% electors in the country; and
8.
Now, therefore, after taking into account all relevant factors and the legal and factual position, the Election
Commission hereby directs that for the upcoming General Election to the House of the People, 2019, and General
Elections and Bye-elections to State Legislative Assemblies to be held along with the General Election to the House
of the People, all electors who have been issued EPIC shall produce the EPIC for their identification at the polling
station before casting their votes. Those electors who are not able to produce the EPIC shall produce one of the
following alternative photo identity documents for establishing their identity: -
(i)
Passport,
(ii)
Driving License,
(iii)
Service Identity Cards with' photograph issued' to employees by Central/State Govt./PSUs/Public
Limited Companies,
(iv)
Passbooks with photograph issued by Bank/Post Office,
(v)
PAN Card,
(vi)
Smart Card issued by RGI under NPR,
(vii) MNREGA Job Card
(viii) Health Insurance Smart Card issued under the scheme of Ministry of Labour,
(ix)
Pension document with photograph,
(x)
Official identity cards issued to MPs/MLAs/MLCs, and
(xi)
Aadhaar Card.
1186
HARYANA GOVT. GAZ. (EXTRA.), MAR. 12, 2019 (PHGN. 21, 1940 SAKA)
9.
In the case of EPIC, clerical errors, spelling mistakes, etc. should be ignored provided the identity of the elector
can be established by the EPIC. If an elector produces an EPIC which has been issued by the Electoral Registration
Officer of another Assembly Constituency, such EPIC shall also be accepted for identification provided the name of
that elector finds place in the electoral roll pertaining to the polling station where the elector has turned up for voting.
If it is not possible to establish the identity of the elector on account of mismatch of photograph, etc. the elector shall
have to produce one of the alternative photo documents mentioned in para 8 above.
10.
Notwithstanding anything in Para 8 above, overseas electors who are registered in the electoral roll under
Section 20A of the Representation of the People Act, 1950, based on the particulars in their Passport, shall be
identified on the basis of their original passport only (and no other identity document) in the polling station.
By Order,
K. F. WILFRED,
SR. PRINCIPAL SECRETARY.
