Elderly voters show dedication for upholding democracy in Kathua-Udhampur Constituency

Jammu, April 19 (UNI) In the picturesque hills of Udhampur, amidst the drizzling, stood Chunni Lal, a 91-year-old beacon of unwavering commitment to democracy. Resolute with his walking stick, Lal braved the weather to be the first in queue at the Upper Garnai village polling station for the Lok Sabha General elections of 2024.
"I don't exactly know how many votes I have cast till now. But I will always do my duty to strengthen the democratic process of our country," declared Lal as his voice resonated with the wisdom of ages.
Before heading out to cast his ballot, Lal followed his morning routine, a breakfast followed by catching up on the day's news on his television set. At the Government School in Upper Garnai, fellow voters honored Lal, making way for him to vote unhindered, a tradition born out of deep respect for his steadfast dedication to the electoral process.
