Frequently asked questions

Is the voter ID number the same as the EPIC number?
Yes, the voter ID number is the same as the EPIC (Electors Photo Identity Card) number. It is a unique identification number assigned to each voter. This number is printed on the voter ID card and is used for verification during elections. It also helps in checking voter details online through official portals.

Is an Aadhaar card linked to voter identification card?
Aadhaar linking with voter ID is an optional process introduced to prevent duplicate registrations. Citizens can link their Aadhaar with their voter ID through the National Voters' Service Portal (NVSP) or by visiting the nearest election office. However, voting rights are not affected if a voter chooses not to link Aadhaar with their voter ID.

Where can I find information about the polling place?
You can find information about your polling place on the official Election Commission website or the National Voters' Service Portal (NVSP). By entering your voter ID details, you can view the assigned polling station’s name, address, and location. You can also contact the local election office for assistance regarding polling details.
