The Prime Minister appealed to all those turning 18 in 2018 to register themselves as voters and help frame the "India of 21st century".

 

"Your vote will become the foundation of a new India... You will not just be granting yourselves the right to vote but will be making yourselves the founders of the tomorrow's India," Modi said.
