Election Commission addresses legal hurdles for Aadhaar linkage with EPIC in India.

The Election Commission (EC) of India is working on resolving legal hurdles to enable a smooth linkage between the Electors Photo Identity Card (EPIC) and Aadhaar. This move is aimed at enhancing the accuracy of the electoral rolls and preventing voter fraud. The EC has requested the Law Ministry to amend the Aadhaar Act and the Representation of the People Act to facilitate the linking process. By linking EPIC with Aadhaar, the EC aims to eliminate duplicate entries and ensure a more transparent electoral process. The proposal comes in the wake of the Supreme Court’s judgment allowing the linking of Aadhaar with voter ID cards. The EC is keen on implementing this linkage ahead of the upcoming elections to further strengthen the electoral system. The swift implementation of this initiative is expected to streamline the voter verification process and enhance the overall efficiency of elections in India. Stay tuned for more updates on this significant development in the Indian electoral landscape.
