Indians voted in the seventh and final phase of national elections on Sunday, wrapping up a 6-week-long grueling campaign season with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's nationalist party seeking reelection for another five years.
The voting also covers Modi's constituency of Varanasi, a holy city where he was elected in 2014 with an impressive margin of over 200,000 votes.
He spent Saturday night at Kedarnath, a temple nestled in the Himalayas in northern India.
