Welcome to today's election wrap. Over 51% voter turnout was recorded in phase 3 of Lok Sabha polls across 93 constituencies even though polling was marred in West Bengal's Murshidabad due to clashes between BJP and TMC workers.

The remarks drew a sharp reaction from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying the opposition cannot see "beyond appeasement". This, and more, in today's election wrap.
