Earlier this month, the Election Commission announced the launch of the electoral photo identity card (EPIC) in braille for millions of India’s visually impaired citizens.

Taking the initiative one step further, the braille EPIC cards were issued to three visually impaired voters in Karnataka in a bid to make the voting process a lot more inclusive.

Irrapa Hejagar from Gokak in Belagavi, Basvaraj from Jewargi in Kalburgi and Vina from Harihar received their braille EPIC cards from senior officials of the Karnataka election commission.

Voters will use these cards in the upcoming 2019 general elections. All the three visually impaired voters who received braille EPIC cards told media people that they had all voted in the Karnataka Assembly elections held earlier this year.

This is part of the Election Commission’s larger attempt to make the entire voting process more accessible for those with physical disabilities. It also listed out a series of other measures.
