“Vore for Sure was a massive success. More than 20,000 youngsters registered and utilised their vote in the recently concluded elections to the Assembly. These apart, 13,000 senior citizens also utilised their franchise. There are 14,000 PWD (persons with disability) voters in the Hanumakonda district; of which 600 PWD voters availed ‘home voting’ facility,” Pravinya said.
