Family Legacy: Three Generations Unite at Polls

In a remarkable demonstration of civic duty, a family of 14 spanning three generations arrived together at Stella Maris College to participate in the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly election.

Their unified presence, consisting of elderly patriarchs to first-time voters, captured significant attention among fellow constituents and media crews gathered at this prominent Chennai polling venue, known for hosting high-profile personalities and civic groups.

Family members expressed to the media that this practice aims to inspire the younger generation, fostering an understanding of the power of their vote. "Voting together has been our tradition for years," 63-year old Jayanthi stated. Her son Shivraj noted the familial atmosphere turns voting into a collective celebration rather than a routine task. Polling continues across Tamil Nadu's 234 constituencies.
