70 years old Babubhai Dafer is a happy man. For the first time in his life he will be exerciseing his franchise to vote in the forthcoming Loksabha elections. Along with Babubhai 11 other adults of Dafer families residing in Laxminagar village of Surendranagar’s Limdi block, have acquired the Voter's ID cards as a result of collective efforts by VSSM and Chief Electoral Officer of Gujarat Ms. Anita Karwal. These individuals had been striving to get the Voter ID card for last three and half years.
They had no proofs or support documents that are required to process the application. Add to it the community they belong to - the Dafer. These facts became the reasons for the officials to deny processing the applications. Why do Dafers require a Voter Card?? they would question. VSSM had tried to resolve the issue but it was impossible to change the attitude of the local administration. We later brought this issue to the notice of Ms. Karwal, whose intervention ultimately made it possible for the individuals to acquire the Voter ID cards.
