Press Release Summary: a2znri | Voting right for NRIs
Press Release Body: Voting right for Non Resident Indians / Persons of Indian Origin / Overseas Citizens of India
Even though the Non Resident Indians(NRIs) holding the Indian Passport are allowed to exercise their vote by their physical presence in India, very few NRIs can cast their vote and cannot make themselves available in India every time to participate in the election.
Many times, the names are removed from the list by the authorities with the assumption that the NRIs are not available in India for voting. We strongly feel that the dual citizenship holders should also exercise their vote because of their contributions for development of India and unfortunately this provision is not there due to the present rules.
We have taken the opinion of several NRIs and everyone felt that their right to exercise the vote in India be made feasible through Postal Ballot. You are requested to join the stream along with your NRI friends, colleagues and relatives by signing the petition to President of India.
