Here's prasad and don't forget to vote: Chandigarh priests

Other temples too are urging people to vote.

At least two prominent sweets shop chains, which have a number of outlets in and around the city, are pasting stickers on boxes of sweets and even gift-wrapped items urging voters to cast their vote.

"We are putting up stickers on our sweets boxes to explain the importance of voting. We will offer discount on voting day also," said Neeraj Bajaj, owner of leading sweets shop Sindhi Sweets.

Other shops are chipping in by offering discount to people who cast their vote and want to buy things. From dress material to shoes to cosmetics to department stores - a number of them are offering discounts.

Even the state-run hotels like Mountview, Shivalikview and Parkview are offering discount ranging from 20 to 35 percent April 10 and 11.
