Along with his wife and two daughters, former chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat, the BJP’s candidate from Haridwar, cast his ballot and expressed confidence in winning the seat with a margin of more than five lakh votes.

The votes were also cast by yoga master Ramdev and his assistant Acharya Balkrishna.

Ramdev informed reporters that he had voted in favor of the nation’s prosperity based on its cultural legacy and tradition.

“I have voted to free India from economic, educational, medical and cultural slavery,” he stated.

In an effort to support democracy, he also urged people to leave their houses and utilize their right to vote.

Anil Baluni, the Pauri Garhwal candidate and national spokesman for the BJP, also voted.
