During the visit, Jalli extended warm Bihu wishes to Ramati Baishya and presented her with traditional Assamese gifts such as Gamosa, Cheleng, and Doi-Pitha. Jalli also urged Baishya to exercise her voting rights in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, emphasizing the importance of her participation in shaping the nation’s democratic future.
“It was a wonderful experience visiting the 105-year-old aaita. We encouraged her to vote, and she promised to do so. If someone like her can go out and vote, why can’t our young voters also turn out in large numbers on polling day to make it a great success,” said Keerthi Jalli.
