Earlier today, Union Minister Anurag Thakur also launched the #MeraPehlaVoteDeshKeLiye anthem on X. The campaign is aimed at encouraging young voters to exercise their democratic right to vote.

“A clarion call was given by our Honourable PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji in his recent Mann Ki Baat address and as the nation gears up for its biggest festival of democracy, I urge all of you to join the #MeraPehlaVoteDeshKeLiye campaign and encourage young voters to exercise their democratic right,” said Thakur.
