Campaign vehicles drive home value of vote in Eluru

Eluru: With a view to create awareness among masses on the value of vote and sensitising them to cast vote without fail, the district election machinery started voter awareness campaign through vehicles all over the district.

Fitted with mike-system, the vehicles move into all locations in the districts and educate people the significance of voting right. The vehicles move into nook and corner of the district and spread the message of ethical voting.

District Collector Praveen Kumar flagged off 15 such campaign vehicles on Monday and said the audio would help the voters to recognise the value of vote and how to use it as a weapon to elect good leaders.

He said people should feel the social responsibility of exercising their vote and avail the constitutionally gifted weapon to strengthen democracy.

It is sad that only few people are showing interest in voting which is causing huge loss to the nation.

There is no point in hesitating to exercise franchise by standing in a queue once in five years as single vote is pillar for democracy.

Everyone, irrespective of their age, gender and social status should come forward as the opportunity to save democracy which comes once in five years.

Every voter in the district should utilise their voting right during polling on April 11 and elect good leaders, he appealed.
