Budgam, November 5,2025: In view of the upcoming bye-elections to 27-AC Budgam, the District Election Office Budgam organised a comprehensive Voter Awareness Programme under the Systematic Voters’ Education and Electoral Participation (SVEEP) initiative to encourage greater voter participation and informed electoral engagement.
The programme aimed to educate citizens about the importance of voting, the ethical responsibilities of voters, and the significance of each vote in strengthening democracy. Officials urged all eligible voters, especially first-time and young voters, to exercise their right to vote responsibly.
Various activities including street plays, signature campaigns, awareness rallies, and cultural performances were organised to spread the message of electoral participation and ensure maximum voter turnout on polling day.
