The NSS Unit of Rashtriya Raksha University actively participated in the Election Awareness Programme organized by the Election Commission of Puducherry on 17 March 2026 at Rock Beach Gandhi Statue in connection with the Election Anthem Release Ceremony for the upcoming Puducherry Legislative Assembly Election.
A total of 25 NSS volunteers took part in the programme, which aimed to create awareness about ethical voting and encourage citizens, particularly first-time voters, to participate responsibly in the democratic process.
The NSS students actively participated in a thematic ramp walk on first-time voting awareness. Through their presentation, they highlighted the importance of youth participation in democracy, informed decision-making, and the responsibility of every citizen to vote. Their performance was well appreciated by the organisers and the public.
Another major highlight of the programme was the ethical voting pledge. The students pledged that they would neither accept nor offer any form of bribery in exchange for votes, and that they would uphold the principles of free, fair, and transparent elections.
