Would like to remind everyone to exercise their rights to vote: Karan Johar ahead of National Voters Day
Mumbai/IBNS: Filmmaker Karan Johar on Monday urged citizens to exercise their rights to vote a day ahead of National Voters' Day.
In a post on Koo, he wrote: "India is the largest democracy in the world and voting is everyone's right. Tomorrow, 25th Jan is the National Voters Day and on that occasion, I would like to remind everyone in advance to not to forget to exercise their rights to vote."
National Voters' Day was first celebrated in 2011 to observe the foundation day of the Election Commission of India in 1950.
The aim to mark the day is to encourage, facilitate and make sure all Indians eligible for voting are enrolled.
Special attention is given to the new voters. The new voters are felicitated and are given their Elector Photo Identity Card (EPIC).
