Cost and Works Accountants Act, 1959
63M. Voting by members employed on duty at polling booth
The polling officer, the persons appointed by the Secretary to
assist the polling officer, or the authorized representatives referred to in
Regulation 63E, who are voters for any constituency and who by reason of their
being on duty at a polling booth, are unable to be present and to vote at the
polling booth where they are entitled to vote, may send to the Secretary by
name so as to reach him at least thirty days before the date fixed for the poll
at the constituency, application for permission to vote at the polling booth
where they will be on duty. If the Secretary is satisfied that the claim is
just, he may, notwithstanding anything contained in this Chapter, allow the
application and permit the voter to vote at the polling booth where he will be
on duty to act as polling officer or to assist the polling officer or as
authorized representative of a candidate:
PROVIDED that such permission shall not be granted to
more than one authorized representative of a candidate in respect of each
polling booth, such authorized representative being specifically nominated for
the purpose by the candidate himself.
