Young women voters turned up excitedly at the polling booths in Mumbai North Central constituency to exercise their franchise for the first time and fretted over the lack of water and absence of seating arrangements at the polling booths.
The voters also said that they had gathered information about their candidates and had researched well before casting their votes, “I had asked my family members about the candidates, my elder brother told me about the candidates and I checked their social media websites before coming. I made sure that I saw the symbol on the VVPAT machine before leaving the booth,” said a 26-year-old first-time voter.
