Mangaluru, Apr 18: Allwyn D’Souza, president of Catholic Sabha Mangaluru Pradesh urged Christians to partake in various religious, social, wedding or any other programmes after casting their vote on election day.
He urged the community to encourage children and relatives working in outstation districts and states to return to their native place and cast their vote.
Allwyn D’Souza expressed, "The Election Commission is already conducting various programs to increase voter turnout, and it's crucial for all of us to contribute to this effort. Everyone should prioritize casting their votes before attending to other responsibilities. Those who have a day off should strive for 100% polling. A competent government can only be formed when everyone exercises their right to vote. Voting is our responsibility, and failing to do so means we bear the consequences."
