An Indian citizen who is registered as a voter and is above 25 years of age is allowed to contest elections to the Lok Sabha or State Legislative Assembly. For the Rajya Sabha the age limit is 30 years. Candidates for the Rajya Sabha and Vidhan Sabha should be a resident of the State from which she/he is contesting election. A person who has been convicted for an offence under electoral laws or some criminal offences cannot contest election for a period of 6 years from the date of conviction
