For example, Victory Day, Independence Day and International Mother Language Day fall in the Ka category. Election observers are praising the EC’s plan to observe Voter’s Day amid hopes that the day will inspire young voters. They have suggested observing the day on the date when the Election Commission was established or on the day when the Election Commission starts updating its voter list every year. Election Working Group or EWG President Abdul Alim said: “We have time and again urged the Election Commission to observe Voters’ Day.”“Every year the commission updates the voters’ list on a specific day. If a day is marked as the ‘voters’ day’, then potential voters will keep that in mind.”India observes Voters’ Day on the day it established its election commission.
