Election Commission of India (ECI) for the first time decided to deploy volunteers of National Service Scheme (NSS) and cadets of National Cadet Corps (NCC) for election duty in Uttar Pradesh and other states going for Assembly polls in 2012.
The Election Commission of India (ECI) planned to deploy NSS volunteers and NCC cadets outside polling stations on election day to maintain discipline and ensure voters stand in queue without facing inconvenience. ECI has planned to deploy the volunteers at polling stations with more than 1,000 voters and where there are more than two booths in the same place.
Volunteers will assist elderly and physically challenged voters to reach the polling booth entrance. They will assist other voters by checking their names in alphabetical electoral roll locators provided outside the booth.
