India’s Elections to be the largest festival of Democracy.

India is the world's largest and most complex constitutional democracy. With 968 million registered voters, 15 million elections officials, and 1.2 million polling booths, the upcoming 18th edition of National Elections is the largest electoral logistics exercise ever seen on the planet. The Prime Minister of India has hailed the country's elections as the largest festival of democracy. The fate and future of the nation depend on the power of voters and their responsibility to cast a vote. India is going to experience this vibrant exercise for the next three months.
According to the Election Commission (EC), this year, there are 1.85 crore first-time voters in updated electoral rolls. EC has also highlighted the growing participation rate of women voters as a positive indication of the healthy growth of democracy. The constitution of India confers the right to vote upon every Indian citizen whose age is above 18 years, regardless of caste, creed, color, or gender. India is a complex democracy with diversity in everything.
We have 28 states, 8 union territories, and 424 living languages. We are one of the oldest civilizations in the world, spanning more than 4000 years, and have a rich culture and heritage reflected in our customs, traditions, food, and clothing. Our geographical diversity is also unique, as we have three seasons, mountains, seas, deserts, jungles, marshlands, and snow mountains.
The uniqueness and diversity of India are evident in our Loksabha elections, where different national and regional parties with their symbols, leaders, and agendas contest the election. The power of this elephantine democracy lies in the hands of the informed citizens who cast their votes.
