Follow These Easy Steps to Link Your Aadhar Card with Voter ID Online
This article will provide you with a step-to-step guide to link your Aadhar Card with Voter ID. People who are willing to link their Aadhaar numbers with the electoral roll can do by filling a new Form 6B.
The Election Commission (EC) of India launched a campaign on August 1 to link voter identification cards with Aadhaar cards in few states.
Voter ID cards and Aadhaar cards are being linked in order to verify voter identity, authenticate entries on the electoral roll, and identify cases of the same person's name being registered in more than one constituency or more than once in the same constituency.
Sharing Aadhar Details will be Voluntary
The government has made it clear that linking Aadhaar to voter identification cards will only be optional, and voters must provide a good reason for doing so. According to a PTI report, former Chief Election Commissioner Sushil Chandra had said that voters would need to have a good cause for not linking the unique identifying number to voter ID cards.
Link your Aadhar with Voter ID Online
By completing a new Form 6B, those who wish to link their Aadhaar numbers with their voter identification can do so. A voter's Aadhaar number can be submitted both online and offline.
Submit Form 6B
Every person whose name appears on the electoral register is eligible to submit Form 6B along with their Aadhaar number to the electoral registration officer.
