For the fourth time, the Kudumbashree has been tasked with serving food to officials on election duty on April 25 and 26.
The Kudumbashree has served food to officials on poll duty during the 2016 Assembly polls, 2019 Lok Sabha election, and the 2021 Assembly elections. This time too, the Kudumbashree women will become part of the election process by making sure that officials on duty in nearly 2,500 booths across the constituencies of Thiruvananthapuram and Attingal in the district do not go hungry.
Each booth will have five to six officials on poll duty. With so many officials in need of sustenance, the Kudumbashree’s catering units alone will not be able to provide them food. The Kudumbashree has, therefore, decided to go with its neighbourhood groups (NHGs) or a NHG member living near a booth to ready the menu for the officials.
