Hi dear! I had listened and read in the previous year that blind voters will be get Braille voter ID cards. Is it true? If so, I would like to know that how can I get Braille voter ID card as I am blind. I have already register as a voter so I have already available sided voter ID card but I also would like to get Braille voter ID card. Regards, Aman.
