While casting his vote, Ram Madhav appealed to the citizens of Delhi to help improve the voting percentage.
"It is an important day for Delhi. We would appeal to people to come out and vote. Delhi's vote percent disappoints sometimes, we expect a big change and we would request them to come out and vote for a better change this election," stated Madhav.
Ram Madhav also stated that there is a need for more Urban voters to come out and vote. "I won't say that urban voters don't vote. It hovers around 60 per cent in Delhi that has voters from service class and they are educated. They should take out time to vote."
