The initiative aims to educate citizens about the importance of voting and motivate them to exercise their democratic right on January 15, 2026.

Campaign Conducted Under Senior Civic Officials’ Guidance

The campaign is being carried out under the guidance of Municipal Commissioner Anmol Sagar and Additional Commissioner Nayana Sasane, and is coordinated by SVEEP Nodal Officer Shrikant Pardeshi.

A series of rallies and outreach activities have been organised through municipal schools, involving students, teachers, and civic staff to reach out directly to residents in different localities.

Student Rally Held At Temghar Village

One of the major programmes was held at Municipal School No. 44 in Temghar. A large rally of schoolchildren was taken through Temghar village, where students raised slogans urging citizens to come out and vote on January 15, 2026.

The rally created a vibrant atmosphere as young voices called upon residents to strengthen democracy by actively participating in the electoral process.

Second Awareness Drive From Navivasti To Apsara Talkies

A similar awareness drive was organised by Municipal School No. 68 in Navivasti, where a student rally was taken out from Navivasti to Apsara Talkies.

During the march, students stopped at busy intersections and public places to appeal to citizens to vote and to understand the power of their ballot in shaping local governance.

Slogans highlighting the importance of voter participation and democratic responsibility echoed through the area, drawing attention from passers-by and local residents alike.

Children Used As Bridge Between Civic Body And Families
