Rajasthan Election Dept launches voter literacy club campaign in schools. The primary objective of this campaign is to prepare young students as responsible future voters. Students are being informed about the four annual voter eligibility dates – January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1. Those who turn 17 years old are encouraged to pre-register as voters, ensuring they are prepared to vote once they reach 18 years of age. The best-performing school ELC heads and institutions will be honoured at the block and district levels on the upcoming National Voters’ Day. The District Election Office is also conducting online monitoring of ELC-related data via the Shala Darpan portal and the Private School portal. The Education Department will integrate ELC activities into its Shivira Calendar starting from the next academic session.
