One of the primary objectives of organizing this rally was to raise awareness among the city's first-time voters, as Nashik has recorded a significant number of such voters. The event aimed to educate and engage these new voters in the electoral process, encouraging them to exercise their right to vote responsibly.
The participation and enthusiasm witnessed during the rally reflect the community's commitment to civic engagement and the democratic process. Such initiatives by the NMC play a crucial role in fostering civic awareness and encouraging active participation in governance among residents, especially among the youth.
