Displaying his inked finger, Chadha stated, "Today is the grand festival of India. Every vote by the citizen will decide the direction and condition of the country. I request everyone to exercise their right to vote."

Former MLA Sibgatullah Ansari, the elder brother of the late Mukhtar Ansari, a gangster-turned-politician cast his vote in Ghazipur, Uttar Pradesh. He is also the elder brother of Samajwadi Party's Lok Sabha candidate from Ghazipur Afzal Ansari.

After casting his vote, UP CM Yogi Adityanath said "PM Modi has taken some time out of his busy schedule of 2.5 months, although his entire life is dedicated to India. He has served India for 10 years and has increased India's respect in the world by considering the country's welfare as paramount. This spiritual worship of PM Modi is dedicated to the nation...Those who are involved in corruption and misconduct cannot understand the importance of this. To understand this, one needs to have faith in India and India's eternal values and we can say with confidence that the meditation and devotion of PM Modi is also a part of nation worship and the country will also get its benefits..."

In Himachal Pradesh, BJP national president JP Nadda, along with his wife Mallika Nadda, cast their votes at polling booth in Bilaspur. Speaking to the media, Nadda said, "I was the first voter here.

I consider this a festival of democracy."
