Voter ID card carries information about the voter including the address and citizen’s enrolled constituency. An eligible voter is only allowed to cast a vote from his/her registered constituency.
So, if you’ve recently moved to a new city and want to register yourself as a voter there and cast a vote, then you’ll need to update your Voter ID card with the new address and also ensure that your name has been added to the electoral roll.
To do this, you will need to submit an online request using the National Voter Service Portal. Wondering how? Follow our step-by-step guide:
