Mangaluru, May 10: Voters must exercise their franchise without coming under any influence, appealed senior politician and former minister BA Mohidin.
"Exercise your right to vote by going to polling booths on May 12. Do not postpone your voting time until noon or evening. Participate in the voting as you have a great role in government formation. Do not stay back for any reason. Without coming under any influence, cast your vote in favor of a secular candidate," he appealed.
"With the election date approaching, messages to divide votes based on religion and ideology are being circulated in social media. These things can confuse voters. By giving their votes to a secular candidate, minorities must defeat the communal agenda of dividing votes," Mr. Mohidin stated.
