After casting his vote, former ISRO Scientist Nambi Narayanan urged India`s younger generation, many being first times voters, to exercise their right to vote.

"In Kerala, we are about 2.77 crores of voters, out of which 5 lakhs are the first-time voters. I think first of all, they should be happy as they are part of the system...In Kerala, the community is more educated, I hope they understand who rules the centre and state...They also must fathom who is suitable for them. No matter whether you like the system or not; you should vote as it matters a lot," he added.
