Young voters of Vadodara city have received an attractive election promise from the opposition Congress for civic body elections.&nbsp;

To attract young voters Congress in its manifesto, which was released on Tuesday, has promised to set up coffee shops for youngsters from the middle class and lower-middle-class backgrounds.&nbsp;

According to the party's city unit president Prashant Patel, such facilities are the need of the hour.&nbsp;

"Coffee shops or cafes are expensive. Youths from middle and lower-middle-class can hardly afford to pay huge bills. We are in the 21st century and we must promote a culture where our youngsters can sit and enjoy private moments without any fear," Patel told PTI.&nbsp;

If the Congress is voted to power, the Vadodara Municipal Corporation (VMC) will build cafes, which will double up as dating destinations, he said.&nbsp;

These amenities will also generate employment for locals, he added.&nbsp;

Notably, over 60,000 students take admission every year at state-run MS University and three to four private universities that have campuses in and around Vadodara city.&nbsp;

Apart from cafes, the city Congress has also promised to build clubhouses where women can organise kitty parties at affordable rates, Patel said.&nbsp;

Elections to six municipal corporations in Gujarat, including the BJP-ruled VMC, will take place on February 21.&nbsp;

As many as 81 municipalities, 31 district panchayats and 231 taluka panchayats will go to polls on February 28. &nbsp;
