HAMIRPUR: It is a small town which can be covered in one long walk, but that doesn't mean people of Hamirpur have a narrow range of awareness.
With voting having begun early in the morning, groups of youngsters, women and the elderly were scattered across town on Sunday. Outside the government intermediate college, which had a well-decorated polling booth, a group of youngsters was in animated discussion on what the 'mood' of the public was.
In the age group of 22-29, the all-male gathering shared various concerns, talking to TOI. While unemployment was a common concern, their views were stronger about another worry.
