Voter awareness
In Pulwama district preparations for the coming parliamentary elections have been started by authorities.
Recently in a continuous effort to encourage voter participation and foster civic engagement, the District Administration Pulwama today organized a series of awareness programmes under (SVEEP).
The Special Voter Enrollment, Education, and Participation (SVEEP) initiative aimed to educate and motivate citizens to exercise their right to vote and contribute to the democratic process.
At least 15 programmes were held at various schools across Pulwama, Tral , Pampore and Rajpora constituencies in collaboration with local authorities and community leaders.
The programmes featured interactive sessions, informative workshops and engaging activities to raise awareness about the importance of voting and the upcoming elections. Through innovative approaches and outreach strategies, the initiative reached a wide range of residents, including youth, women and marginalized communities.
The District Election Officer (DEO) Pulwama, Basharat Qayoom expressed his satisfaction with the response and engagement from the community. “The goal is to create a culture of active citizenship and empower every eligible voter to make their voice heard. By organizing these awareness programmes we were able to reach out to different segments of the population and emphasize the significance of participating in the electoral process,” he said.
