6th May 2013 / Rizwan Gangavaly / Bhatkallys News Bhatkal: In the elections held yesterday, on one end, many fit and healthy persons wasted their votes due to laziness and neglect and were seen enjoying at Jaali beach, while, on the other end many senile and handicapped people realizing the importance of their votes were seen casting their votes at their respective polling booths. In Urdu Government School located in Makhdoom Colony Bhatkal, Janab Abdul Qadir Kandlur, aged 110 years, Janab Maulvi Mohammed Ali Sukri (Ali Sukri Khalfo) and other handicapped persons were seen casting their votes in spite of their senility and feebleness. This should serve an inspiration to the healthy and fit persons who haven't realized the importance of their voting power and wasted their votes due to neglect. vote-casting-1 vote-casting-3 vote-casting-2
