The Education Ministry and the Information and Broadcasting Ministry on February 27 jointly launched a nationwide awareness campaign “Mera pehla vote desh ke liye (my first vote for the country)”, under which various events will be organised in universities, colleges, and higher education institutions to encourage the first-time voters to participate in the upcoming election.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi has today issued a clarion call towards making the electoral process more participative and invited people from all walks of life to spread the message of “Mera pehla vote desh ke liye” campaign in their own style among first-time voters. The Prime Minister shared his message via a post on X,” said a Press Information Bureau release.
Information and Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur also launched the campaign’s anthem via an X post, stating that it was aimed at encouraging young voters to exercise their democratic right to vote.
