With 10 days left for the assembly elections, residents’ associations across the city have come up with plans to help voters and ensure a high voter turnout. They have already come up with a helpline which will provide a white paper on candidates that will give a comparison of criminal records, if any, and assets of the candidates in the fray.

They are also taking the help of students to ensure that their parents would come out and vote on the D-day.

“There is a lot of confusion in areas like Chembur. Some areas come under Kurla. So we are giving such details of the constituencies and candidates in our fortnightly paper,” said V Sangole of Pestom Sagar advanced locality management (ALM).
