PM to virtually interact with first-time voters across 5,000 locations today

The programme will be organised by the youth wing of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will virtually interact with first-time voters across 5,000 locations in India on Thursday.

The programme, Namo Nav Matdata conference, being organised by the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM), the youth wing of the BJP, hopes to reach one crore first-time voters between the age group of 18 and 25 years.

“The Namo Nav Matdata conference will take place tomorrow (Thursday) at 5,000 places in India. Registrations have been done for the youths to interact with Modiji. Lakhs of youth will interact directly with the PM tomorrow. This is the first time that a PM is interacting with first-time voters at this scale. One crore first-time voters will be touched,” BJYM national president and BJP MP Tejaswi Surya said on Wednesday.

“Tomorrow is National Voters’ Day. Under Naddaji’s leadership, the BJYM will contact new voters and make them interact with Modiji. We will enroll lakhs of youth tomorrow as Viksit Bharat ambassadors,” Surya said, adding that there were more than seven crore new voters aged between 18 and 25 years.

“Youth voters played a major role in the election and re-election of Modiji. There are many youth-centric policies of this government. The new education policy has come after 36 years. There are new IIMs and IITs. Digital India, startup India, aerospace, the drone sector are growing, and the private sector has also been involved. Niti Ayog stated that around 25 crore people have come out of poverty. The youth have benefitted from all these,” Surya said.

“There is an infrastructure revolution. Highways, airports, railways, have directly benefitted the youth. Unemployment is at an all-time low. The youth are enthusiastic and extremely keen on making Modiji PM for the third time,” he said.

He said the contrast between India before Modi as PM, and India after Modi as PM will be conveyed to the young voters.
