e-EPIC voter card: Since the government of India is aiming for a digital country, the Election Commission of India has introduced an e-EPIC or Electronic Electoral Photo Identity Card.
Last year on January 25, also celebrated as National Voter’s Day, the EC launched this initiative.
What is e-EPIC voter card?
It’s essentially a non-editable PDF version of the actual voter identification card.
We feel it is a secure document because it is not editable, and bad actors may not be able to tamper with it or exploit it to steal users’ personal information because it is not editable.
The PDF version of the Voter ID can be used for both identity and address verification. For quick access, this digital ID evidence can be saved as a PDF on a mobile phone or in a Digi locker.
