In Thiruvananthapuram on April 6, Kerala Chief Electoral Officer Rathan U Kelkar and District Collector Anu Kumari featured in a vibrant Gen-Z-themed music video aimed at encouraging young voters to participate in the upcoming Assembly elections.

They were joined by Assistant Collector Sivasakthivel, Election Department Under Secretary Sarin SS, and several team members, including BLO Sathyabhama and others, who contributed to the initiative.

The video is designed to engage youth and highlight the importance of voting, promoting the message “we vote, we decide” to emphasise the power of each vote in shaping the government.
