State Election Commission

The State Election Commission (SEC) is an independent authority responsible for overseeing local elections within a state, such as those for municipal councils, panchayats, and sometimes for state assemblies. Its primary role is to ensure that elections are conducted fairly, transparently, and smoothly, following the legal framework. The SEC manages voter registration, prepares electoral rolls, and supervises the election process to prevent malpractice. It operates independently of political influence to uphold democratic integrity at the state and local levels.
