The SOPs would enable the delivery of EPICs within 15 days of an update in the electoral rolls, including new enrolment of an elector or change in any particulars of an existing elector. The initiative was in line with the various measures being undertaken by the ECI for the convenience of electors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-7\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">As per the press release issued by the Press Information Bureau (\u2018PIB\u2019), the new system will ensure real-time tracking of each stage from the EPIC generation by the Electoral Registration Officer (\u2018ERO\u2019) till the delivery of EPIC to the elector through the Department of Posts (\u2018DoP\u2019). Electors will also receive notifications via SMS at each stage, keeping them informed about the status of their EPICs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-8\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">For this purpose, the ECI has introduced a dedicated IT module on its recently launched ECINet platform. The new IT platform will replace the existing process by re-engineering the current system and streamlining the workflow. DoP\u2019s Application Programme Interface (\u2018API\u2019) will be integrated with the ECINet for seamless delivery. This initiative aimed to enhance service delivery while maintaining data security.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-9\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%; font-weight: bold;\">Source: PIB<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p style=\"font-style: italic;\">In continuation of the various measures undertaken by the ECI for the convenience of voters, new Standard Operating Procedures have been introduced to ensure real-time tracking and faster delivery of Electoral Cards to voters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67524,"featured_media":350981,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1188,2],"tags":[83708,83710,34878,83707,13881,83711,83709,48118,83705,83706,7451,3189,83704,41878],"class_list":["post-350954","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hot_off_the_press","category-news","tag-department-of-posts","tag-dops-application-programme-interface","tag-eci","tag-ecinet","tag-election-commission-of-india","tag-electoral-cards","tag-electoral-registration-officer","tag-electoral-rolls","tag-electors-photo-identity-cards","tag-epic","tag-pib","tag-Press_Information_Bureau","tag-real-time-tracking","tag-sops"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.4 (Yoast SEO v26.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>ECI\u2019s new SOPs on Electors Photo Identity Cards | SCC Times<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Learn about the new Standard Operating Procedure ensuring quick delivery and tracking of Electors Photo Identity Cards\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2025\/06\/19\/eci-introduces-new-sops-real-time-tracking-delivery-electoral-cards\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"ECI introduces new SOPs for real-time tracking &amp;
