Gandhinagar, Dec 9 (IBNS): As the first phase of polling started in Gujarat on Saturday morning, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged the voters to turn up in large numbers and exercise their rights.
"Phase 1 of Gujarat polls begin. Urging all those voting today to turnout in record numbers and vote. I particularly call upon youngsters to exercise their franchise," the Prime Minister's tweet read.
Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani has already cast his vote, reports said.
