New Delhi:
A day after Gujarat observed the first phase of assembly election, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is addressing election rallies in Sanand, Palanpur, Kalol and Vadodara today.
In the first phase, 89 of the state's 182 assembly constituencies in Kutch, Saurashtra and South Gujarat underwent polling and witnessed about 68 per cent turnout. The Election Commission responded, after there were several allegations of EVM malfunctioning, saying that about 0.5 per cent of the total ballot units and control units - which make up the EVM - had to be replaced during voting.
The second phase of Gujarat assembly election is scheduled for December 14 and the results will be announced on December 18.
