PREFACE

Democracy is enshrined in our Constitution. The two core principles underlying democracy in India are ‘equality before law and equal access to power’ and certain ‘Freedoms and Liberties’ protected by the Constitution. An Essential process in representative democracies, like India, is competitive but fair elections.

Elections in India are not merely a process of voting somebody to run the government; it is more like a festival, a show of jubilation, an opportunity to change or reaffirm faith in the ruling political party, ensuring the importance of the individual in the democracy. The election process in India is extremely elaborate. The physical size of the country, its socio-economic complexity and the sheer numerical strength of the electorate call for a multi-phase election, involving a number of step by step processes, right from the announcement of the election dates by the Election Commission of India, which brings in to force the Model Code of Conduct for the political parties, to the announcement of results and the submission of the list of successful candidates to the paving the way for the formation of a new government.

Elections to the 15th Lok Sabha were announced by the Election Commission of India on 2nd March, 2009. People in Himachal Pradesh exercised their franchise in the 5th and last Phase of polling on 13th May, 2009. These elections were the first after the delimitation of Parliamentary and Assembly Constituencies in 2008. There were several other notable features of these elections, including the introduction of Braille signage ballot papers and Braille compatible EVMs to facilitate secret voting by the blind voters, a comprehensive communication plan covering even the remotest polling booths through the telecom and wireless network, widespread videography of various election related activities to ensure transparency in the whole election process, frequent media briefings to share information and educate the general public about various aspects of conducting elections, firm and fair enforcement of the Model Code of Conduct etc.

Nearly 45000 people, including security personnel, were associated with the entire election process and it is a tribute to their hard work and efficiency that the whole process went off without a hitch and with clockwork precisions. The political parties also extended their full cooperation in ensuring the smooth conduct of these elections. The Election Commission of India was of course always there to guide and advise us in our endeavours and we are grateful to them. Several departments such as Printing & Stationery, Information and Public Relations, Police etc. played an active role in the entire election process. But the biggest tribute must go to the voters of the State who have exhibited their traditional enthusiasm and participated in the elections peacefully.

This Report is a record of the events as well as a statistical record of the 15th Lok Sabha elections. We hope it will be of use to the general public, political parties as well as all students of psephology. Suggestions for the improvement are welcome.

XVII-POLITICAL CAMPAIGN:

The campaign was peaceful and came to an end at 5 PM of 11th May, 2009.

XVIII-PRINTING & SUPPLY OF BALLOT PAPERS:

The postal ballot papers to the service electors, whose names appear in the last part of the Electoral Rolls are required to be issued to them within 48 hours from the last hour fixed for withdrawal of candidature. This 48 hours time includes the period required for printing of such ballot papers. Therefore, as usual, the postal ballot papers were got printed by the respective District Election Officers at their own level from the local printers under tight security and despatched in time to the concerned service electors through their respective Record Offices by the Returning Officers as per set procedure laid down by the Election Commission of India.

Ballot papers for EVMs including tendered ballot papers were printed in the State Govt. Printing Press at Shimla as under:-

XIX-INTRODUCTION OF BRAILLE SIGNAGE FEATURES ON EVMs:

For the first time, Braille Signage Features on the EVMs were introduced for the visually impaired electors during General Elections to Lok Sabha, 2009. We have purchased 11,600 Braille signage stickers, from BEL to affix the same on all the Ballot Units for the convenience of Braille knowing visually impaired voters. The following numbers of Ballot Papers in Braille were printed at National Institute for visually handicapped (NIVH), Dehradun to enable the Braille literate visually impaired electors to exercise their franchise:-

One day orientation training on Braille Signage Features was organized at Composite Regional Centre, Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Sundernagar, Mandi, to the Master Trainers of the Districts who in turn provided training to the polling parties in their districts. In addition to above, wide publicity about the Braille Signage Features on EVMs for the visually impaired electors was made through Doordarshan Kendra, Shimla.

XX-VIDEOGRAPHY OF IMPORTANT EVENTS:

As per standing directions issued by the Election Commission of India from time to time, arrangements were made for videography of critical events during the period of electioneering throughout the State. Video cameras and Digital camera were extensively used to cover critical events like election rallies, randomization of EVMs, training of polling personnel, distribution of election material, movement of polling parties, transport and receipt of polled Electronic Voting Machines and other material, polling process, counting of votes, and storage of polled EVMs in strong rooms after counting, etc. etc. This work was done by engaging local videographers by Returning Officers/ District Election Officers/ Assistant Returning Officers. This was done to enable the Commission to have a true and faithful record of the violations of elections law and standing directions of the Commission and to assess the impact of its corrective measures to conduct the free and fair elections.

789 video cassettes/ CDs of critical events were prepared during Lok Sabha Elections, 2009. The District-wise details are as under:-
