Stating this the deputy election officer Kanuram Naag said this fleet of the 104 campus ambassadors is creating awareness about larger participation in the voting here.
Last lok sabha election it was little over 64 percent. This time we are vigorously campaigning for 80 percent of polling said Naag.
Asked if this target for 80 percent voting is not like a cry for the moon here to which Naag said "We will leave no stone unturned to achieve this percent of voting."
