Maharashtra's Urgent Plea: Every Vote Counts

Maharashtra's Chief Electoral Officer, S Chockalingam, urged voters to participate in the state assembly elections, emphasizing the significance of every single vote. Despite polling being on a weekday, voters are urged not to treat it as a holiday, as a collective effort helps shape the state's future.

Maharashtra's Chief Electoral Officer, S Chockalingam, issued an earnest appeal to voters across the state, urging them to exercise their franchise responsibly rather than viewing the polling day as a mere holiday.

Highlighting the power of one vote, Chockalingam expressed, "Do not think that one vote will not make a difference. It can make a difference," following his own participation in the democratic process.

The state is witnessing elections in 288 assembly seats, with the BJP-led alliance striving to maintain its rule, while the rival Maha Vikas Aghadi aspires for a strong resurgence. Senior officials, including Chief Secretary Sujata Saunik, have already cast their votes, underscoring the importance of participation.
