'Stop Vote Chori' Sticker Campaign

A democratic awakening — one sticker at a time.

16 August 2025 Ballari

Conducted on directions from AICC and the National Youth Congress to mobilise voters against electoral malpractice.

Why It Happened

Following nationwide concerns over voter roll manipulation and electoral malpractice, the AICC and National Youth Congress launched the 'Stop Vote Chori' campaign. Ballari rolled out the sticker phase to take the message into every neighbourhood — shops, autos, homes and public spaces.

Thousands of stickers carrying the 'Stop Vote Chori' message spread across Ballari, turning every auto-rickshaw and shop shutter into a small democratic billboard.

Leadership Involvement

President K Srikanth and the district team launched the campaign and coordinated block-wise rollout.
