520			_aThe Election Commission of India initiated a programme “Systematic Voters Education and Electoral Participation (SVEEP)’. The activities of the SVEEP began during the General Elections, 2014. Focusing the relevance of voter education in a developing country like India, the present study attempts to examine the SVEEP activities undertaken in the Island territory prior to the recent Lok Sabha Election and studies the extent to which the fruits of voter education reached to the marginalized groups, especially women.
