Did You Know? According to Section 135B of the Representation of the People Act, 1951, employees in any business or industry are legally entitled to a paid holiday on the polling day, with no wage deductions, regardless of their usual pay structure. This means that even employees who would not normally be paid for that day must receive their regular wages. Employers who fail to adhere to this requirement may face a fine of up to Rs. 500.
