The Election Commission of India (ECI) introduced the e-EPIC (Electronic Electoral Photo Identity Card) on January 25, 2021. The facility for downloading digital voter ID cards officially began on National Voters' Day. Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad inaugurated the e-EPIC initiative and handed out digital voter cards to five first-time voters. This marks the first instance of the government issuing voter IDs in a digital format, joining other established digital identity documents like the Aadhaar card, PAN card, and driver's license.

To exercise your right to vote, you must ensure your name is registered in the official voter list. You can verify your enrollment and download your voter card with a photo. The NVSP portal is the primary platform provided by the Election Commission to simplify the process of applying for a voter ID, checking application status, updating personal details, and printing your voter identity card.
Voting is a fundamental constitutional right and a vital pillar of Indian democracy. Every citizen should actively participate in elections to choose their representatives for a government that truly serves the people.
