Wish to get discounts on your sumptuous food at city’s hotels on April 18 and 23? Then, get your finger inked.
To persuade people to come out and vote, the Bruhat Bengaluru Hotels Association has come up with this lucrative offers. They also plan to put up posters on their premises to remind people to cast their votes.
Bruhat Bengaluru Hotels Association treasurer Veerendra N Kamat said to make people realise their responsibility, all hotels and restaurants will put up posters stating that voting is from 7 am to 6 pm, and people should also encourage others to vote.
Hotels and association members are coming up with offers like free tea or coffee, 10-15% discount on breakfast, around 20% discount on lunch and dinner. Some are will offer free idli with dosa.
Kamat said this is not the first time discounts are being offered. However, it is an initiative to encourage people to vote.
Sagar M, a restaurant owner in Majestic, said he will offer free sweets to all those who would eat at his place and show their inked finger. He said he did the same during the last elections also and the response was phenomenal. He plans to offer jelebies as he had done previously.
