SVEEP Committee encouraging voters to exercise their franchise

The Election Commission of India, the district administration and the zilla panchayat have been making efforts to encourage voters to exercise their franchise to select a representative who will protect their rights enshrined under the Constitution.

Chief Executive Officer of Yadgir Zilla Panchayat and Nodal Officer of the District Systematic Voters Education and Electoral Participation (SVEEP) Garima Panwar has said that everybody should cast their votes and also create awareness among their neighbours to exercise their franchise without fail.

“The Constitution has given ample power to the citizens of this country who have attained the age of majority to elect their representative through the voting system. Therefore, everybody should vote compulsorily to strengthen the Constitutional structure. The responsibility of everybody will not end with merely casting their own vote. However, it is everyone’s responsibility to encourage their neighbours to vote in the elections,” she said.
