Description
A recent United Nations report on internal migrants has strongly recommended ensuring voting rights of internal migrants. The joint report released this week by Unesco and Unicef says that special provisions are needed to ensure the voting rights of internal migrants irrespective of their multi-locational residence. The Constitution of India recognises the right of free movement within the territory of the country as a fundamental right. However, those who migrate from their home-place lose most of the rights, including the right to vote.
