Karnal, Dec. 11 -- Speaking in the Lok Sabha during the ongoing Parliament winter session, Kurukshetra MP Naveen Jindal, on Wednesday called for introduction of e-voting so as to make the polling accessible for millions of Indians to vote during the elections from wherever they are.

Jindal said that India frequently discusses ease of living and ease of doing business and it is now time to make ease of voting a national priority.

"More than 1.5 crore Non Resident Indians (NRIs) hold Indian citizenship but many of them cannot return to the country during elections. As a result, a large number of people who contribute to the Indian economy and society through their work abroad are unable to take part in the democratic process," he said.
