Ahmednagar: Supporters of social activist
Anna Hazare Saturday released an audio CD which contains message
for voters ahead of the Zilla Parishad and Municipal
Corporation elections in Maharashtra.
In the CD, Hazare's supporters have appealed to the
people to vote for clean and competent candidates and not get
carried away by emotional issues like caste, religion and
language. The message has been drafted by Hazare and there is
additional material in the CD in form of songs.
It was released by Shyam Asawa, senior social worker
and trustee of Hazare's Bhrashtachar Virodhi Jan Andolan, here
in Western Maharashtra.
Activists like Suwalal Shingavi, Milind Kulkarni,
Shrinivas Bojja and Suresh Pathare, who are associated with
the anti-corruption crusader, were present on the occasion.
Nearly two lakh copies of the CD will be distributed
all over the state.
Zilla Parishad elections are due on February 7, while
polling for 10 Municipal Corporations will be held on February
16.
