Can a non-resident Indian become a voter?
Ans. According to Section 19 of the R.P.Act, 1950, only a person who is ordinarily resident in a constituency is entitled to be registered in the electoral roll of that constituency. However, such of the non-resident Indian who are employed under Govt. of India in a post outside India are eligible to be included in the electoral rolls. Other non-resident Indians are not eligible to be registered in the electoral rolls.
