GANDERBAL, MAY 07:
In a remarkable display of commitment to gender equality and civic engagement,
the District Administration Ganderbal has successfully concluded its innovative
initiative, ‘Her Vote Matters’.
This week-long
door-to-door awareness campaign, spearheaded by a dedicated team of 3,800
members forming 1,431 teams, has left a profound impact on the community. The
team, comprising of CEO/Dy. CEO (Nodal Officer SVEEP), CDPOs, Coordinators
NRLM, Clsuter Heads (Principals of Hr. Sec. Institutes)/ Teachers/Anganwadi
Workers/SHG Members duly monitored by the District Administration, embarked on
a mission to visit 14,218 households, engaging with 63,713 female voters,
enlightening them about the significance of their vote.
The campaign, aptly
named #HerVoteMatters, is aimed not only to empower women but also to educate
them about their crucial role in shaping the democratic process.
Through this
concerted effort, the District Administration Ganderbal has set a shining
example for others to follow, demonstrating that every voice, especially those
of women, deserves to be heard and counted.
The success of 'Her
Vote Matters' underscores the importance of inclusive and participatory
democracy. It is hoped that by involving families in the voting process, the
district will achieve a remarkable voting percentage.
As we celebrate
this achievement, let us be inspired to continue striving for a society where
every voter, irrespective of gender, is informed, empowered and valued.
