write two steps taken by the election commission for organizing elections in India
Answers
Explanation:
Old, hand-written and photocopied electoral lists of the past have been updated this time and computerised in Urdu. This was done based on a house-to-house survey in urban areas, and examination of land and other records in rural areas.
These updated lists are available for any person to apply for corrections. They have been made available to every party, to Registration Officers and to anyone else who wants it.
For the first time anywhere in the country, voters slips (identifying serial number in the electoral list and place of voting) are being delivered by the Election Commission itself to the doorsteps of the voters. This is being done throughout the State. It has also been indicated that if any person of eligible age does not receive this slip, he is entitled to approach the Commission for rectification/verification.
Observers from other States in India, which is the normal practice during elections in any part of the country, have been identified. In contrast to elections elsewhere, this time they have already made visits well in advance to assess the preparations and make recommendations for any modification. The Chief Election Commissioners have themselves extensively toured the State.
At least one person in each district of each specified party has been provided security, so that political activity can be carried out, despite any fear or threat of terrorist activity.
