Deepak Sharma, Founder said, “Public participation is needed to bring about reforms and the same can be achieved only through the active participation of social activists, in helping to form the strengthened democracy”. 

It is also the job of NGOs also to spread awareness among the people must know about the importance of voting because one honest politician at the top can make a huge difference and also putting them wiser about the facilities available for people with special needs, elderly women, transgenders, while using their right to franchise on the day of voting. 

He said, voting will not be the end to all problems but just a beginning to the end and the youth can be a deciding factor in bringing about change.

Principals – Rajesh Mehta and  Ajit Kumar said, the major chunk of voters belongs to the lower strata who do not have much information about the party or the candidate they vote for. So we have done this job by educating these people with the contribution of teachers in the festival of democracy.

On this occasion Principal Rajesh Mehta, Principal Anoop Kumar, Principal Ajit Kumar, Assistant Electoral Registration Officer 076 Bhupinder Singh, SVEEP  Coordinators Lakhwinder Singh and Kamal Sharma, Charanjit Singh and Mayank Foundation members were present.
