I would appeal all to vote with fervor. The (Indian) voter is aware and it's a matter of curiocity for people across the globe. I welcome the young first-time voters who would play an active role in forming the government. This century belongs to the millennials - they have to shape their future. I would request them to pledge cent per cent voting. We are setting an example for the world what's the importance of democracy. Democracy has the power of Voter ID. We exercise this power and vote optimally to continue high voting percentage of the first and second legs of Lok Sabha elections.

BJP has the largest chunk of seats to defend out of the total number voting today. The saffron party had won more than half of these seats in the 2014 polls and its performance today will be key if it is to retain power at the Centre. Congress would be looking to make dents in BJP’s kitty, especially in a state like Gujarat, where BJP had swept all seats in 2014.
