The Campaign was flagged off in the college Auditorium by the Coordinator of the CWC organisation Ms Kripa Bhat, Assistant Director of the CWC Mr Shivanand Shetty, and the Director of School of Communication, Manipal, Dr Padma Rani, and is organized by School of Communication, in joint collaboration with the CWC and the Grama Panchayath Hakkottaya Andolana.
The highlight of the ‘Right to Vote’ Campaign was the open-discussion initiated by the invited guests of the event, to tune-in to the views and opinions that the students, the young and energetic minds have on the concepts such as ‘Why should I, as an individual, cast my vote in the elections?’, ‘Does my vote actually make a difference?’, ‘What is my idea, on the kind of representative I would rather have, represent me?’, by course of which diverse, numerous opinions ultimately led to question ‘How can I, as an individual, contribute to upholding the Democracy of our nation?’
The Campaign is significant in understanding where the new-age voters’ perception of our electoral system stands, and also in deeply comprehending suggestive ways, by which each one of us can ensure the upliftment of our nation’s Democracy through zestful and dynamic participation especially by the youth and younger generation, who are the future of the nation.
