Zodiac Matches That Make The Best Couples
On Thursday, the Election Commission of India (ECI) disproved a fake WhatsApp message that went viral, claiming that government workers wouldn’t be allowed to vote through postal ballot. The poll board announced that voting through postal ballot would be made possible for poll workers performing election-related duties.
ECI said in a post on X, “False Claim: A message is being circulated on Whats App that Govt employees cannot cast their vote through postal ballot.”
ECI added, “Reality: Message is misleading & fake. Eligible Officials on election duty can cast their vote through postal ballot at designated Voter Facilitation Centre.”
Voters using postal voting, also known as absentee voting, are permitted to cast ballot by mail instead of appearing in person at a polling place.
On the day of voting, officials listed on the electoral roll would be in attendance. As a result, they would be unable to vote at their designated polling places due to their official obligations. The Election Commission established facilitation centers so that people could cast postal ballots and ensure they could exercise their right to vote.
In addition to voters on election duty, voters under preventive detention, special voters, and service voters are all permitted to vote by postal ballots.
