New Delhi, 27 Feb (IANS) Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said on Tuesday that the all higher educational institutions (HEIs) in the country will conduct voter awareness activities on their campuses from February 28 to March 6.
“In pursuance to PM Narendra Modi’s appeal, I have directed all the higher educational institutions to conduct comprehensive voter awareness activities on their campuses from February 28 to March 6,” minister Pradhan said.
He said that PM Modi has given a clarion call to “our youth and first-time voters to exercise their franchise in large numbers”.
