What to Focus On

  • India needs elections because direct decision-making by all citizens is not practical in a huge democracy.
  • The Election Commission of India is an autonomous constitutional body established on 25 January 1950.
  • It prepares electoral rolls, frames the Code of Conduct, conducts elections, and declares results.

  • The Chief Election Commissioner is the head of the Election Commission.
  • The tenure is 6 years or up to 65 years of age, whichever is earlier.
  • Since 1993, the Election Commission has had three members: one Chief Election Commissioner and two Election Commissioners.

  • The Election Commission has administrative, advisory, and quasi judicial functions.
  • It prepares and revises electoral rolls and announces the election schedule.
  • It advises the President and Governors on disqualification matters.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The Election Commission of India has its own permanent staff and works like a normal government department.

The Chief Election Commissioner is more powerful than the other Election Commissioners in salary, privileges, and powers.

The Chief Electoral Officer is a constitutional post like the Election Commission.
