Sudha Murty also encouraged young people to vote. “Instead of just talking, come out and vote,” she said, explaining how important it is to share your opinion.
She asked people in Bengaluru, where fewer educated people vote, to vote more. “Even if you’re educated, you should vote,” she said.
Rahul Dravid also spoke up, saying everyone should vote, especially young people and first-time voters. He praised the election arrangements and hoped for a big turnout in Bengaluru.
Even when things are tough, Narayana Murthy’s determination to vote shows us how important it is to take part in democracy.
