I have also visited 10 to 12 voters at their houses to convince them to vote for me and my team. Our agenda is better family environment at the club, which is not there at present, improvement in quality of food, lawn tennis court and all weather swimming pool. We are also making use of other ways of campaigning like social media”.
Other candidates are focusing in the social media for the most part. “Though I meet selected persons who hold good influence among voters, I don’t go door to door to disturb voters in the morning like many other candidates are doing.

I am using whatsapp, among others to expose the misdeeds of some candidates,” said Pawan Group, who is also contesting for the post of general secretary.
