“Is Aadhaar card enough as an identify proof for voting,” asked an enthusiastic Josekutty as he stood in the line leading to booth no. 37 at Government Higher Secondary School at Chowara, near Aluva.
“I am exercising my franchise for the first time, and I am excited,” said the 19-year-old. A senior citizen standing next to him in the queue was quick to offer an answer, “Yes, Aadhaar is a valid document, and you can show it to the polling officer to cast your vote.”
