Election Commission Launched NERPAP
Error-free Electoral Roll is one of the foundational
requirements of the democratic governance. In
this direction , the Election
Commission of India has launched National Electoral Rolls, Purification and
Authentication Programme (NERPAP) to take all necessary measures including
linking the Elector’s Photo Identity Card ( EPIC) data with the Aadhaar number,
for achieving error-free Electoral Roll by 15th August 2015. The
Programme has already been started w.e.f. 03.03-2015. Linking of Electoral Roll
with Aadhaar is intended to achieve the following:
1. To
prevent duplicity in the enrolment of an elector in the Electoral Roll.
2. To
create hassle free enrolment in the roll at new place of residence in case of shifting.
3. To
ensure easy removal of multiple entries of an elector from electoral roll .
4. To
authenticate the entry in the Electoral Roll.
Under
this programme Hon’ble Lt. Governor of Delhi Sh. Najeeb Jung linked his Aadhar
Number with his/her Electoral data through ECI NVSP portal today on 28.04.2015
in his office at RajNivas. Dr. Chandra Bhushan Kumar, Chief Electoral Officer, Delhi
was also present on the occasion. Hon’ble Lt. Governor appreciated the efforts
of office of CEO Delhi under NERPAP
