The Election Laws (Amendment) Act passed last year allows poll authorities to ask people to share their card details, aimed at weeding out duplicate entries of voters

A nationwide drive to urge voters to voluntarily give their Aadhaar numbers to polling officials is set to begin on Monday.

The Election Laws (Amendment) Act passed last year allows poll authorities to ask people to share their Aadhaar numbers — aimed at weeding out duplicate entries of voters. However sub-section 23(6) of the amended Representation of the People Act, 1950, decrees that no legitimate voter can be excluded if they can provide “sufficient cause” for their inability to furnish Aadhaar and shares alternative documents instead.

This was stalled by the Supreme Court the same year.The apex court is currently hearing a plea by the Congress’s Randeep Surjewala challenging the amendments. Many Opposition parties, the Internet Freedom Foundation (IFF) and a group of former civil servants and experts who published a report on elections last year have opposed the linking.
