India's Electoral Process Among Most Transparent in World: CEC Gyanesh Kumar

Kumar said verification at every stage, from rolls to counting, keeps India’s elections transparent as officials push youth registration and voter-roll accuracy.

  • Booth Level Officers identify cases like Absent, Shifted, Dead, Duplicate, and Foreigner to maintain electoral rolls, while visiting homes to verify that every eligible Indian citizen who has completed 18 years of age is registered.
  • During the event, Kumar engaged with more than 1,000 stakeholders, including Electoral Literacy Clubs members and campus ambassadors, urging youth to download the ECINET app to assist peers with voter registration.
  • India currently chairs the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance, an organization comprising 35 major democracies, reflecting global recognition of the country's free and fair electoral system.
