Election Commission of India mandates comprehensive voter facilities across 2.18 lakh polling stations for upcoming Assembly elections in Assam, Kerala, Puducherry, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal. All polling stations must provide Assured Minimum Facilities including drinking water, waiting areas with shade, functional toilets, adequate lighting, accessible ramps for persons with disabilities, and proper signage. The directive requires benches at regular intervals for voter comfort during queues. To enhance voter awareness, standardized Voter Facilitation Posters displaying polling station details, candidate lists, identification requirements, and voting procedures will be prominently displayed. Voter Assistance Booths staffed with officials will help electors locate their polling booth numbers and electoral roll serial numbers.
