Like several Bollywood celebrities, veteran actor Raza Murad stepped out in the city to cast his vote in the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections.
After exercising his right to vote, Raza Murad spoke to ANI and emphasised that voting is a responsibility, and those who do not vote have no moral right to complain later. "It is your right. If you don't vote, you have no right to complain," he said. Earlier in the day, celebrities like Akshay Kumar, Aamir Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Twinkle Khanna, Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Khan, and Gaurav Khanna were spotted arriving at their respective polling booths to cast their votes. Polling for civic body elections began across 29 municipal corporations in Maharashtra this morning. According to the State Election Commission, voter turnout stood at 29.22 per cent till 1:30 pm after a sluggish start earlier in the day. The elections are crucial for major urban centres, including Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Nashik and Pimpri-Chinchwad, with vote counting scheduled for January 16. (ANI)
