Election Commission of India

May 10, 2014 by Admin Leave a Comment

  • The Election Commission of India is an autonomous, constitutionally established federal authority responsible for administering all the electoral processes in the Republic of India.
  • Under the supervision of the commission, free and fair elections have been held in India at regular intervals as per the principles enshrined in the Constitution.
  • the Election Commission’s enforcement of India’s remarkably strict election laws grew increasingly lax. As a consequence, candidates flagrantly violated laws limiting campaign expenditures. Elections became increasingly violent (350 persons were killed during the 1991 campaign, including five Lok Sabha and twenty-one state assembly candidates), and voter intimidation and fraud proliferated.
  • Functions and powers is the most important features of the democratic polity is elections at regular intervals. Democracy is the“Government of the people, By the people, And for the people”.
  •  Holding periodic free & fair elections are essentials of democratic system. It is part of basic structure of the Constitution which has been held in T. N. Sheshan V/s Union of India.[6] The Commission has taken many efforts for the success of elections and thereby democracy.
