Things got exciting at the new Collectorate in Khammam as the staff celebrated Bathukamma festivities with a twist. To reflect the upcoming general elections, the celebrations at the campus focused on the ‘Sweep’ program. Women officers, staff, Anganwadi teachers, supervisors, and CDPOs played Bathukamma while promoting the importance of the ‘right to vote’ and the use of vote through slogans. They also played cards and sang songs related to voting. Children also participated, dressed in bright colors and enjoying the informative atmosphere.
