New Delhi. An important decision can be taken soon to link Aadhar Card with Voter ID card i.e. Voter ID (Aadhaar Voter Id link Online Update). A meeting of the Standing Committee of Parliament is going to be held next week regarding this.Â
It is being said that the Standing Committee on Personnel, Public Grievances, Law and Justice, headed by BJP’s Rajya Sabha member Sushil Kumar Modi, is going to meet on November 25. Many more issues related to electoral reforms can be discussed in this important meeting.
According to the English newspaper Indian Express, apart from linking Aadhaar and voter ID, the issues related to elections will be discussed in this meeting – remote voting, action against elected representatives who file false affidavits and conduct all elections from Panchayat to Parliament. Includes general voter list.
Aadhaar and Voter ID
The Election Commission recently requested the Union Law Ministry to clear pending electoral reforms, including linking of Aadhaar with voter ID. Let us tell you that in August this year, the government had proposed to allow the Election Commission to use Aadhaar for registration of new voters. Also, the government had approached UIDAI regarding the proposal to link Aadhaar.
Discussion on remote voting
The Standing Committee will also discuss the issue of remote voting. Explain that through remote voting, voters will be given the right to vote from anywhere in their registered constituencies. It is being said that during the meeting of the committee with the officials of the Election Commission, a presentation can also be given on this issue. This issue has come at a time when the Election Commission is planning to start mapping the population of migrant workers across the country to prepare a roadmap for the introduction of remote voting.
Voter list discussion
Earlier this year, the then Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad had told the Lok Sabha that the use of common electoral rolls would save time. Separate voter lists are issued for each election. But now it is being considered to bring a single voter list for all elections.
