Businesses in Bengaluru, India, entice voters with incentives like free beer, discounted cab rides, and food offers to increase turnout in the general election. With historically low participation rates, companies aim to encourage citizens to cast their ballots. The initiatives, ranging from free health check-ups to discounted amusement park tickets, aim to celebrate democracy and civic engagement. Following a court ruling allowing such offers, establishments prepare to reward voters showing their ink-stained fingers. Through these efforts, Bengaluru hopes to surpass previous turnout records and strengthen democratic participation.
