8 kg samosa, 30-inch papad: food carnival with 'must-vote' message in Bikaner

Lok Sabha Elections are all set to begin from April 19. Political parties are busy spreading their ideas through rallies and social media. The Election Commission wants more people to vote, so they organized an event in Bikaner, Rajasthan, to show how important voting is.

Even Baba Ramdev joined and asked people to vote for their favourite party.

The food festival was held at Masala Chowk, Bikaner. Huge varieties of food were on display like an 8 kg samosa, 5 kg pizza, and a 25 kg bread. They also had a 20 kg burger, a 4 kg hot dog, and a 30-inch papad. These things came with a message 'must-vote'.

They even made a 42 kg dessert with the message 'must vote'. They used 31 kilos of Bengali sweets to make the Indian flag and wrote voting messages on it. They also served a 1.5-foot-long Jalebi. Along with the food, there were cultural programs.

People who came promised to vote in the upcoming elections while enjoying the food.

Other cities are also doing campaigns for a high voter turnout. In Sivakasi, they installed a Photo Point to encourage everyone to vote. The district officer, VP Jayaseelan, talked to young voters about the importance of voting.
