Students help Attappady tribespeople link Aadhaar, voter ID

The Electoral Literacy Club, the Student Police Cadet (SPC) and the National Service Scheme (NSS) units of Government Vocational Higher Secondary School at Agali, Attappady, conducted a joint campaign to help the tribespeople living in the remote jungles of Attappady to link their voter identity cards and Aadhaar cards.

The drive evoked warm response from the tribespeople as the students reached out to them braving several hurdles, including arduous trek paths and elephant threats.

The students reached the hamlets at Kuruvankandy, Thavalam, Parappanthara, Kunnanchala, Plamaram, Narasimukku and Mamana and helped the residents link their Aadhaar cards with their election IDs. The students also covered the SC Colony in the Attappady block.
