This unique floral installation, aimed at raising voter awareness and participation, is showcased at the 17th International Flora Expo and Landscape & Gardening Expo, currently underway at NESCO in Goregaon
The 17th International Flora Expo 2024 is being held from October 25 to 27 at the NESCO Exhibition Centre in Goregaon (East), Mumbai
The Maharashtra Assembly elections are scheduled for November 20, with counting for all 288 constituencies set for November 23
Earlier, authorities have been reaching out to the civil society members and representatives of housing societies in Mumbai's Colaba segment to appeal for increasing the voter turnout in the Maharashtra assembly elections 2024
This comes after Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar last week expressed concern over urban apathy affecting the voter turnout
In the 2019 state polls, south Mumbai's upmarket Colaba area saw a low voter turnout of about 40 per cent
In a bid to address the issue of urban apathy, the Election Commission has decided to hold voting this time on Wednesday (November 20), with an aim to discourage voters from going on vacations if the exercise is clubbed with weekends
