Voting Smartly
New Delhi
Despite the power to choose our representatives to run the nation, many become powerless due to lack of education, awareness and essential documentation. The solution to this is creating responsible citizens and enabling them to take informed decisions. As educators, it is our responsibility to inform the people about the current scenario of governance and the provisions provided to them under the constitution. With the general elections ongoing around the time, it was crucial to educate our senior students and empower the ladies on the relevant topic of election and voting. The session, facilitated by our teachers, for the students of classes 8th to 12th and the ladies of the community, was held on 22nd May, 2024, in Kishangarh School, New Delhi. It focussed on topics like the history of elections, the importance of elections, voting and voting cards, and the relevance of nota. The day culminated with an engaging slogan writing and poster-making activity on the same theme.
