Special attention was being directed towards different voter demographics, including persons with disabilities (PWD), young voters, tribal, and border area voters.
In a unique collaboration, the SVEEP Cell of Morigaon has partnered with the Jagiroad College, the first and only college in the Northeast with a dedicated department of acting to raise awareness through street and stage plays.

Efforts to raise awareness extend to the ‘World Consumer Day’, with shop owners playing a pivotal role in disseminating information. Recognizing the importance of youth engagement, initiatives were being designed to raise awareness among children, ensuring that they are well-informed about the electoral process and their role as future voters.
