   With reference to service voters in question 3, wives of service voters too are allowed to cast their votes when posted in embassies. Can anyone please let me know if wives too are regarded as service voters? My doubt is because of the word ‘only’ used in the question.

      yes, answer to this question is given wrong over here.

      Class of Electors who are eligible for ETPBS:

      Service Voters, other than those who opt for proxy voting (Classified Service Voters).
      The wife of a Service Voter who ordinarily resides with him.
      Overseas Voters.

      Ref Link: https://eci.gov.in/faqs/voter-electors/service-voter/faqs-service-electors-r13/

      Is wife or son/daughter of a service voter also enrolled as a service voter ?

      Ans. The wife of a service voter shall, if she is ordinarily residing with him, be also deemed to be a service voter in the constituency specified by that person.

      The wife will be enrolled as a service voter on the basis of declaration made by her husband in the application form itself submitted by him and no separate declaration / application is required to be made by the wife.

      A son / daughter / relative / servant etc. residing ordinarily with a service voter cannot be enrolled as service voter.

      The question explicitly mentions Service Voters and not Wife of a Service Voter.
      All such voters need to be declared as Service voters at first.
