An Electoral Literacy Club is a platform to engage college students through interesting activities and hands-on experience to sensitize them on their electoral rights and familiarise them with the electoral process of registration and voting. At ELCs, activities are designed to stimulate and motivate students provoking them to think and ask questions. Through ELC, the Election Commission of India aims to strengthen the electoral participation culture among young and future voters.
