A few days from the polls, Mumbai's Congress candidates are busy wooing young voters. North Central candidate Priya Dutt and North West candidate Sanjay Nirupam attended events to interact with the youth on Sunday. Nirupam had invited Hardik Patel to address the youth. North candidate Urmila Matondkar was also present at the event, where Patel took digs at the Narendra Modi-led government and spoke about its failure, and candidates then unveiled a manifesto for the youth.

An organisation, Citizens Converse, held the interactive sessions to bridge the gap between the youth and the candidates. One of the members of the organisation, Mizan Tejani, said, "The aim was to educate the electorate and explain the roles of members of Parliament and members of the legislative Assembly, and also the local corporators to the youth. Participants were between the age group 18 to 25. The idea was to do away with the discomfort between the youth and candidates, and give it a more casual, interactive approach."
