Respected sir,
I’m Roni Sk from Barasat, Kolkata. I tried to apply for Voter ID Card but the website informs me that I’m not eligible for Voter ID Card. But my date of birth is 17th June 2003, so I’m 18+ by now. I’m also informed to apply after 17th Jan 2022.
I can’t understand why website says me to apply after 17th Jan 2022 although I’m 18+. Recently I applied for PAN Card & I got it.
If you please explain me what should I do now then I would be obliged to you forever.
Thanks a lot.

Thank you sir for your valuable information.
