Submit pledge to vote forms, get passes of Indian Ocean rock concert


Vadodara, 27 April 2014

India’s top rock band Indian Ocean will perform at University pavilion in Vadodara to create awareness among voters. The event has been held at 7.00 pm on 28 April. Voters will take oral pledge of voting on this occasion. Around 20,000 people are expected to join the event which is part of a series of programmes organized by MS University and other organizations to create awareness among voters.

As many as one lakh ‘pledge to vote’ forms are distributed in Vadodara among voters, mainly young voters. Each person takes pledge to vote and asks five more persons to vote. Moreover 47,000 online registrations are also received. Indian Ocean concert passes are given to those who submit the signed pledge forms physically. Booths are set up at malls, theaters, shops etc places to received the forms.

NDA’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi is face of the elections in Vadodara. He is challenged by Congress candidate Madhusudan Mistry. While district administration is doing its best to ensure maximum turn out on polling day as part of its duty, the BJP wants over 75% voting and ideally 90% voting to make Narendrabhai victorious with record margin nationally.
