Barricading will not block your access by vehicle to drop off point close to booth
Each booth has signage indicating priority queue for voters with disabilities & senior citizens
Keep an eye out for a wheelchair volunteer - 1/4 polling stations have wheelchair facility.
A 1:12 gradient ramp with handrails should facilitate your entry and level-free passage inside the station.
Show your voter id card or a photo ID like passport, PAN / Aadhaar card for verification
Get inked.
If you are an English Braille user, ask for a copy of the dummy ballot paper with the order of candidates listed
on the EVM. Memorise your preferred candidate's number. The number after the last candidate is the NOTA
(none of the above) option. Braille numbers are embossed to the right of the voting button, on same line as the
written text. Wait for the audiovisual feedback after pressing the button to confirm your vote has been cast.
If you'd like to vote with a companion's assistance they will need to fill a declaration (under section 49N of the
Conduct of Elections Rules) and you will be required to sign / fingerprint the polling booth official's 14A book.
Your companion will also be allowed to vote immediately after you.
