Conduct of elections involves diverse activities carried out by an election machinery consisting of
officials and staff requisitioned from various departments of the Central Government, State
Governments, PSUs, Local Authorities etc. During the election period, the entire machinery,
deployed on the ground, performs arduous and sensitive duties, which extend for long hours and
even continue for many months, so as to ensure a conducive environment wherein electors are
able to exercise their franchise and elect a government of their choice.
For ensuring that personnel on election duty are compensated suitably, the Commission has
decided to revise the rates of remuneration/honorarium to be paid to personnel on election duty.
The last such major revision of remuneration/honorarium was done between 2014 and 2016.
