ECI opens web portal for political parties to file financial accounts

In News
  • The Political parties will now be able to file their financial accounts online to the Election Commission.
Features of the portal
  • The measure has been enabled with the launch of a new web-portal (https://iems.eci.gov.in/) to facilitate the online filing of Contribution Report, Audited Annual Account and Election Expenditure Statement by the Political Parties.
  • The facility has been created with twin objectives: firstly, to facilitate political parties in overcoming the difficulties in physical filing of reports, and
  • Secondly, to ensure timely filing of financial statements in the prescribed/standardised formats. The online availability of the data is expected to enhance the level of compliance and transparency.
  • The on-line portal also has a facility for sending reminders in the form of messages on the registered mobile number and registered emails of the authorised representatives of the political party so that the dates of compliances are not missed.
  • A comprehensive guiding manual with graphical representations, and FAQs have also been sent to the political parties explaining the online module and the process of filing reports online.
