🇮🇳 January 25th - National Voters' Day ✨
Today marks the establishment of the Election Commission of India on January 25, 1950. Since 2011, this day has been celebrated as National Voters' Day.
This year's theme: "There’s nothing like voting, I definitely vote!" 💪
➡️ Article 324 of the Indian Constitution envisions the Election Commission of India.
➡️ The Election Commission is led by the Chief Election Commissioner and two other Election Commissioners.
➡️ Their tenure is 6 years or until they reach the age of 65, whichever comes first.
➡️ Current Chief Election Commissioner: Rajeev Kumar (25th CEC).
➡️ The voting age in India is now 18 years (reduced from 21 through the 61st Constitutional Amendment).
On this day, let’s recognize the power of voting and contribute to strengthening our democracy! 🗳🇮🇳
