_____________________________________________________________________

Subject: Supply of cream/pink wove paper for printing of electoral rolls/ballot papers - regarding.

The procedure being followed so far in the matter of procurement of paper for printing of electoral rolls and printing of ballot papers needs a change in view of the free availability of paper in the market and the absence of statutory control on prices by the Ministry of Industry.

2. The revised procedure to be followed for procurement of paper with immediate effect, is as follows;

(i) Henceforth, the Chief Electoral Officers will directly place orders for their requirements of paper along with detailed delivery instructions on the Paper Mill selected by them under intimation to the Commission. While placing the orders, the Chief Electoral Officers may take into account all relevant factors, but must ensure specification of paper, quality of paper and timely delivery.

(ii) In case of any anticipated difficulty in procuring the paper well in time, the Chief Electoral Officers may approach the Commission.

3. Details of paper Mills, as and when received from the Ministry of Industry will be sent to you.

4. Please acknowledge receipt of the letter.
