Anand Kumar, IAS

Chief Electoral Officer

All human beings are born with dignity and rights to take part in government especially in the field of electoral democratic system. We seek active cooperation of all stakeholders of Rajasthan for setting up a truly citizen friendly, transparent and fair Electoral System. We also seek suggestions for further improving the system and increasing public satisfaction.

Election Department, Rajasthan is reaching out to the people to provide better services in terms of Electoral Rolls, Voter cards, creating electoral awareness, bringing transparency in the system, citizen friendly approach and better management of electoral data. We are committed to make efforts to further streamline electoral processes and provide maximum information online to ensure free flow of communication to stakeholders. The Department shares its vision with Election Commission of India to provide maximum possible online facilities to stakeholders.

Election cannot be viewed as an isolated event, but is a part of a holistic process for promoting democratic governance. Greater public awareness and outreach capacity, transparency, capacity building and empowerment of the citizens are the key areas which are being emphasized by the Election Department. Adding the electors, updating and sanitising the Electoral Rolls are continuous processes. Almost all eligible voters have been provided Electoral Photo Identity Cards and the new system is providing PVC based Voter Cards. Our focus is to increase enrollment of voters from time to time and to fructify the theme of the Election Commission of India i.e. "No voter is left out".

This Website is an attempt at fulfilling our duty and commitment to reach out to all stakeholders. It contains useful, informative and educational electoral material which will be handy for public in helping building a stronger democratic system. This is an ongoing process and we look forward to the willing cooperation from all stakeholders.
