"The Election Commission of India has made special provisions for People with Disabilities, such as Braille ballots, mobile apps for assistance, availability of sign language fluent polling booth officials, construction of temporary ramps, pick-up and drop facilities, etc. to help voters turn out in large numbers."

Persons with Disabilities face several challenges in casting their votes and exercising their rights; another major obstacle in their path to empowerment and independence.

'Accessible Elections' is the theme of this year's National Voters' Day and the ECI has taken big steps to ensure no voter is left behind.

Shruti Kedia from YourStory discusses the steps being taken by the ECI to make sure that this year's elections are not going to be a repeat of the past for those with disabilities.

Was your polling booth disability friendly? Let us know.

The Election Commission of India has made special provisions for PwDs such as braille ballots, mobile apps for assistance, construction of temporary ramps, pick-up and drop facilities, etc. to help voters turn out in large numbers.
