What is a voter slip?
A voter slip is proof that a voter is eligible and on the election commission's electoral roll. The slip provides a voter's name, residence, location, booth number, and other information. Before casting their vote, the voter must present the slip to the first polling officer at their allotted polling station. The polling officer validates the information on the voter slip against the marked copy of the electoral roll and is in charge of identifying electors. When visiting a polling station, one needs bring identification with them.
