hen my daughter would have
her polio drops, during the mass polio vaccination drive, we would jokingly
say, “Adithi has voted,” referring to the ink mark on her finger.
During election, when I came out of the polling station
with an ink mark on the finger, my daughter, four years old then, asked me
“What is voting?” But before I opened my mouth, she had already guessed the
answer. “Do they give you polio drops,
once you enter the hall?!!”
