Haryana will rope in musical bands to play election-theme songs for encouraging young voters to exercise their franchise, Chief Electoral Officer Anurag Agarwal said.
These bands will encourage people to cast their vote on the day of polling and also promote awareness and education regarding the election, Agarwal told PTI.
“Soon we will be doing the first band play, hopefully in Panchkula. The band will perform and election-theme music will be played,” he said.
Later, these bands will be engaged districts having a higher percentage of young voters, he said.
Notably, 1,99,81,982 voters across the state are eligible to cast their votes when polling will be held on May 25 in 10 Lok Sabha constituencies of the state in the sixth phase of general elections.
