Polls about future, but young not interested?
India's youngest eligible voters, aged 18 or 19, show disinterest in voting for the upcoming election. Nationwide, less than 40% are registered, with states like Bihar, Delhi, and Uttar Pradesh having low enrollment rates. Election Commission data reveals only 38% of the projected 4.9 crore new voters in this age group are registered.
