With the Election Commission announcing the schedule of the Presidential elections, the Mysuru-based Mysore Paints and Varnish Limited (MPVL), a Government of Karnataka undertaking, has turned busy as it has the task of supplying marker pens for the election to the country’s highest office.
MPVL Managing Director Kumaraswamy told The Hindu: “The EC has told us to keep the marker pens ready for the elections. We are yet to get the number of pens to be supplied besides other details. We are awaiting further information from the EC but the production of the pens has begun.”
The Presidential polls will take place on July 18. “Once we get the EC instructions, we will supply the pens,” the MD said.
