Default Re: Holiday to Employees on the day of polling

Hi David,Good afternoon & How r u?
Thanks for your reply.

Elections in India
are more than a process of voting someone to rule the nation. Since independence, elections in India have evolved a long way, but all along elections have been a significant cultural aspect of Independent India. It is more like a festival, an indication of jubilance, a show of loyalty, a change of power, and above all ensuring the importance of the individual in a democracy, the voter.

Now the elections in Karnataka (India) is on and the person who is above 18 years has right to vote. Hence, it was the order from the Election Commission to declare a grant paid holiday on polling day.

Hope so it is clear !!

Cheers,
Rasna
