March towards polling booth

India is the biggest democracy in the world and now has faced 14th Parliamentary election. In India voting ratio never goes up to the mark it remains very less. For promoting the people to cast their valuable vote in this election a 4 km march was organized by Deshpande Fellow Cohort-II and LEAD scholars of Deshpande Foundation in the collaboration. This march was started from BVB engineering college and ends at Rani Chennamma circle, CBT bus stand, Hubli. In this march the main motive was to encourage shopkeepers, passengers, students, vehicle drivers, community people and office people etc. Fellows interacted with all people and distributed them pamphlets.
Deshpande Fellow Ajay and Chandru along with lead program manager Annie facilitated this march. About more than 50 youth from different colleges participated in this "March towards polling booth". All the participants concluded the program with lightening the Deep (lamp).
