Under this campaign, parents of all the 55000 students of CMS will be motivated to vote by making them aware of the importance of voting through social mediums like WhatsApp, Facebook etc. In addition, students will be made aware of the importance of voting in the daily prayer assemblies in various campuses so that they can inspire their families, neighborhoods and the people of their localities to cast their vote.
