Taking a significant stride towards ensuring the optimum utilization of the inaugural ceremony of Maharaja Yadwindra Singh Stadium, Mullanpur (New Chandigarh), as a Systematic Voters’ Education and Electoral Participation (SVEEP) initiative, the District Administration of Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar has meticulously planned several activities in and around the stadium for tomorrow.
Divulging details, the Deputy Commissioner-cum-District Electoral Officer, Aashika Jain, stated that in the run-up to the upcoming Lok Sabha Elections-2024, the district administration has proposed a gala event to engage young voters by sensitizing them to the largest festival of democracy. After conducting a detailed review meeting, she revealed that the road leading to the stadium has been adorned with a plethora of visual effects, utilizing hoardings, flags, and mascots. Additionally, multiple selfie points and canopies will be set up outside the stadium. Special emphasis has been placed on featuring the mascot Shera 2.0, released by the CEO, Punjab.
Furthermore, first-time voters have been encouraged to bring their Voter ID cards for a chance to win exciting prizes.
“Five hundred college students, attired in the branded attire of ‘I Vote For Sure,’ including T-shirts, caps, and masks, would attend IPL,” said the deputy commissioner. Visual messages will be displayed on the screen before the match, followed by a stage performance featuring a folk song “Mai Bharat Hu” by a folk orchestra team from Punjabi University Patiala.
In addition, election awareness jingles will be played one hour before and after the match on Red FM. Recorded outreach messages for SVEEP activities will be delivered by players (Shikhar Dhawan) and Preeti Zinta on this occasion.
Several volunteers are deployed to oversee activities and disseminate information about SVEEP (Systematic Voters’ Education and Electoral Participation) to the general public to benefit from this event.
Though the ECI has set a benchmark of “Iss Vaar 70 Par,” our goal is to achieve an 80 per cent voter participation rate in the upcoming Lok Sabha Election 2024 in Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar District.
