The Election Commission of India (ECI) has issued an advisory to all political parties involved in the 2024 General Elections, directing them to cease the enrollment and registration of voters under the guise of surveys for post-election beneficiary schemes. This practice, according to the ECI, could be seen as an inducement to voters and constitutes a corrupt practice under election laws. The directive comes amid the ECI's efforts to increase voter turnout, including the launch of the largest-ever voter awareness and outreach initiative, the Systematic Voters Education and Electoral Participation (SVEEP). This initiative aims to enhance participation in the upcoming phases of the elections, with various public and private sector organizations collaborating with the Commission.
