Some of the restaurants in Patna have decided to offer discounts to those customers who have voted on May 19 in the last phase of the general election.
Lakhu Ka Dhaba, a multi-cuisine restaurant on Fraser Road, has planned to offer a discount of 17 per cent.
"Since we are going to elect the 17th Lok Sabha in 2019, we have put up a discount of 17 per cent for voters who will visit our restaurant tomorrow after casting their vote. Our idea also is to promote voting," said Vijay Kumar, a staff of the restaurant.
This is an eight-year-old restaurant but the discount is being offered for the first time, he said.
At Laziz Tandoori, also located on Fraser Road, its manager Dushyant Raj said there will be a range of discount on various food items.
"On May 19, we will be offering discount to voters, who come to our place and show the inked finger, and, depending on the results on May 23, will offer a bigger discount on that day," Raj said.
But many restaurateurs are playing it by ear and plan .
