Meanwhile, over 68 percent turnout was recorded on Saturday in the first phase of polling for 89 Assembly seats in Gujarat.


The final voting figure was set to go up as people stood in queues outside polling centres even after the closing time of 5 pm, senior Deputy Election Commissioner Umesh Sinha said in Delhi.


On the other hand, PM Modi thanked the people of the state for turning out in record numbers for voting in the first phase.


"Thank you, Gujarat. Gratitude to my sisters and brothers of Gujarat for voting in record numbers today. I am seeing that BJP is headed towards a historic victory, powered by the affection and support of every Gujarati," he tweeted.


The second phase is on December 14, when voting will be held in the remaining 93 seats.
