Yesterday two states went for the assembly election, Maharashtra and Haryana. Maharashtra witnessed lower voter turnout compared to the 2014 assembly elections. Colaba in Mumbai, Versova seat in Suburban Mumbai saw an abysmal voting percentage of 42.66 per cent.
Social Media users targeted Mumbaikars for not coming out to vote, however, Mumbaikars might not have any justification to it but they have something to counter their critics and trolls.
Today, Indian reality TV series Big Boss has revealed the data of its TRP and voting for contestants. Data suggests that a majority of Big Boss voters who vote to save their favourite contestants are from metro cities with Mumbai on the top.
“This data is enough to shut the mouth of people who leave no opportunity to call Mumbaikars hopeless. Voting is my democratic right and I have always exercised however I wasn’t 18+ until season 4 of the Big Boss hence started voting from season 5”, said Neha a resident of South Mumbai.
