Mysore/Mysuru: With the term of the current Karnataka Assembly coming to an end soon and amidst elaborate preparations for the conduct of the next Assembly elections, the Election Commission of India (ECI) has directed city-based Mysore Paints and Varnish Limited (MPVL), earlier called Mysore Lac and Paints (MyLAC), to supply 1.3 lakh vials of indelible ink.
The ink will be applied on the forefinger of the left hand to prevent people from voting multiple times. The MPVL is the only indelible ink manufacturer in India and supplies indelible ink used in all Assembly and Lok Sabha elections that take place in the country. It also exports ink and other products to many countries of the world.
