what is the importance of filling a nomination form

Dear Student,

The filling of a nomination form is the first step in contesting an election. By filling a nomination form, a candidate formally announces his or her candidature in the election. Without filling the nomination form, the candidate will not be able to contest the election. The nomination form also allows the candidate to declare important information like income and whether he or she belongs to SC or ST communities. This is the importance of filling a nomination form.

Regards.
