The Chief Election Commission has made a big and important change for all the elections to be held in the country. On Wednesday, the Election Commission announced that it has started a new process to deliver the Voter ID Card (EPIC) to the home within 15 days. This facility will be applicable in case of new voter registration, or change in the information of an old voter.
Till now, it used to take more than a month for people to get their voter ID card, which caused inconvenience many times. Under the new process, now every step from making the voter ID card to reaching the home through the Postal Department can be tracked. That is, the entire system can now be traced in real time. Along with this, information about every step will be given to the voter through SMS, so that they can know where their voter ID card has reached.
