ELECTION COMMISSION OF INDIA
———
ORDER
Nirvachan Sadan, Ashoka Road, New Delhi-110001/ Dated: 3rd October, 2020
No.3/4/ID/2020/SDR/VOL.I—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 Phote 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 Phote 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 Phote 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 Phote 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 Card have been issued to 100% electors in the
State of Bihar; and
7. Now, therefore, after taking into account all relevant factors and the legal and factual
position, the Election Commission hereby directs that for the General Election to the State
Legislative Assembly of Bihar notified/to be notified on 01-10-2020, 09-10-2020 and 13-10-2020
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)
Aadhaar Card,
(ii)
MNREGA Job Card,
(iii)
Passbooks with photograph issued by Bank/Post Office,
(iv)
Health Insurance Smart Card issued under the scheme of Ministry of Labour,
(v)
Driving License,
(vi)
Pan Card,
(vii) Smart Card issued by RGI under NPR,
(viii) Indian Passport,
(ix)
Pension document with photograph,

(x)
Service Identity Cards with photograph issued to employees by Central/State
Govt./PSUs/Public Limited Companies, and
(xi)
Official identity cards issued to MPs/MLAs/MLCs.
8. 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 7 above.
9. Notwithstanding anything in Para 7 above, overseas electors who are registered in
the electoral roll under Section 20A of the Represention of the People Act, 1950, based on the
particulars in their Indian Passport, shall be identified on the basis of their original passport only
(and no other identity document) in the polling station.
By Order,
Narendra N. Butolia,
Sr. Pr. SECRETARY.
