What is the minimum age required to vote in elections in India?
18 years
18 years is correct.
Under Article 326 of the Indian Constitution, elections to the Lok Sabha and State Legislative Assemblies are to be held on the basis of adult suffrage. The 61st Constitutional Amendment Act of 1988 lowered the voting age from 21 to 18 years, with effect from March 1989.
The eligibility to vote is therefore 18 years, not 16, 21 or 25.
