It was dubbed as a 'Super Tuesday' as highest number of constituencies (117) went to polls in the country. The major chunk - 26- of these Lok Sabha seats was in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's home state Gujarat. But the voter turnout was not quite super.
Around 63.73% of the 4.51 crore electorate voted on Tuesday sealing the fate of 371 candidates. The turnout was marginally more than 2014 election when 63.65% had exercised their franchise. The figure is provisional and is expected to be finalized on Wednesday.
