Mysore/Mysuru: It seems that transgenders have shown little interest in voting, going by the numbers they have voted in the LS polls from Mysuru-Kodagu Lok Sabha constituency held on Friday.
There were 184 trangender voters who have been classified as ‘others’ category in Mysuru-Kodagu LS seat. Also these voters were issued voter ID cards. But despite the regular campaign by SVEEP (Systematic Voters Education and Electoral Participation) Committee in the run up to the polls, only 39 of the 184 transgender voters exercised their franchise, while 145 abstained from voting.
