THE 71.4 CRORE VOTERS IN INDIA WILL HAVE TO CARRY A PHOTO IDENTITY CARD TO EXERCISE THEIR FRANCHISE IN GENERAL ELECTION 2009 . THE PHOTO IDENTITY CARD WOULD BE ISSUED BY THE ELECTION COMMISSION. NO VOTER WILL BE ALLOWED TO VOTE EVEN THOUGH ELECTORAL ROLLS WILL HAVE THEIR PHOTOS.
THE EC HAS DIRECTED ALL RETURNING OFFICERS TO SET UP VOTER ASSISTANCE BOOTHS IN EACH POLLING STATION TO ASSIST VOTERS IN FINDING THEIR VOTER NUMBERS
WON'T THIS PROVIDE ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE TO VOTERS ESPECIALLY IN URBAN AREAS WHERE THERE ARE SEVERAL POLLING BOOTHS IN SAME GOVERNMENT BUILDING?
