National voter day 2023

The Election Commission of India celebrated the 13th National Voters' Day (NVD) on January 25, 2023.

About National Voters Day:

Since 2011, it has been observed on January 25 each year to commemorate the founding date of the Election Commission of India, which was 25 January 1950.
The primary goal of the NVD celebration is to increase voter participation by raising voter awareness among the populace.
In the NVD events hosted across the nation, new voters are honoured and given their Elector Photo Identity Card (EPIC).
One of the biggest celebrations in the nation, it is observed at the federal, state, district, constituency, and voting booth levels.
This year's NVD is dedicated to voters with the topic "Nothing Like Voting, I Vote for Sure." It expresses a person's desire to participate in the election process by exercising their right to vote.

Deciphering the Logo:

The purpose of the logo is to convey the joy and inclusivity of the political process. The tick symbol in the logo represents the voter making an informed choice.
The inked finger signifies the participation of each and every voter in the nation.
The Ashoka Chakra in the background symbolizes the largest democracy in the world.
