Who conducts the elections in the District Administration ?
Answer: D
Elections in a district are conducted by the District Election Officer.
Under the Representation of the People Act, 1950, the Election Commission designates an officer of the state government, usually the Collector or District Magistrate, as the District Election Officer. Under the supervision of the Chief Electoral Officer of the state, this officer coordinates the preparation of electoral rolls and the conduct of all elections in the district.
A development administration officer handles development schemes, a cultural officer cultural programmes, and the army has no role in conducting elections, though armed forces may be deployed for security.
