(THE GIST OF PIB) National Voters’ Day

(JANUARY-2025)

The 15th National Voters’ Day (NVD) will be celebrated across the country on 25th January.

It has been observed annually on January 25 since 2011 to commemorate the foundation day of the Election Commission of India, i.e. on January 25, 1950
It aims to underline the centrality of the voter and raise electoral awareness among citizens and inspire their active participation in the democratic process.
It also promotes the enrolment of new voters, particularly young individuals who have recently become eligible. Across the country, new voters are honored and presented with their Elector Photo Identity Card (EPIC) during NVD ceremonies.
This Year’s Theme “Nothing Like Voting, I Vote for Sure” is a continuation of last year’s theme emphasizing the importance of participation in the electoral process and encouraging voters to take pride in exercising their franchise.
