“My constituency is Madha in Solapur district and I am on my way to village to give my vote tomorrow. We have been given a holiday by office and, as there is heavy rush at railway station, I will travel by ST bus,” said passenger Shailesh K.

Amit Kenjale, a student who hails from Kolhapur, said, “I will vote for LS the first time after I turned 18 two years back. Along with one of my friends, I am going to Kolhapur tonight on bike as there are no seats available in MSRTC buses.”
