Fantastic news in New Delhi, India where 7,000 homeless people find place on voters' list.
Efforts by Election Commission (EC) to include citizens from the marginalised sections on electoral roll have started showing results.
Beginning with a meager figure of only 62 such voters on its list a year back, the EC has been able to enroll over 7,000 homeless people in the city so far.
But senior EC officials said their job did not end with just getting the voters enrolled, as they would now have to ensure that those people actually exercise their franchise.
