The 14th ‘National Voters Day’ (NVD) was today celebrated across all the districts of Kashmir to mark the foundation day of the Election Commission of India, established on 25th January 1950.
The National Voters Day is observed annually on 25 January to create electoral awareness amongst citizens and encourage them to participate in the electoral process. Dedicated to the voters, the National Voters’ Day is also used to facilitate enrolment of voters, especially the newly eligible young voters.
Dedicated to the voters, the NVD 2024 theme – ‘Nothing Like Voting, I Vote For Sure’ is a continuation of last year’s theme and conveys individuals’ feelings and aspirations toward participation in the electoral process through the power of their vote.
Since 2011, 25th January is being celebrated annually as voters’ day to mark the foundation day of the Election Commission of India.
At Srinagar, the Deputy Commissioner (DC) Srinagar, Dr. Bilal Mohi-Ud-Din Bhat, who is also the District Election Officer (DEO) today, flagged-off the Walkathon Rally ‘Run for Democracy’ at SKICC, here as a part of National Voters Day being celebrated to create awareness of the significance of every voter casting his vote.
