India elections: High turnout on first day of voting
The first day of voting in India's month-long parliamentary election has seen a high turnout.
One of the big issues is getting the economy back on track with growth having dropped to less than 5%, from a peak of 9%.
The ruling Congress party, and the Gandhi family which controls it, is getting much of the blame and many expect voters to punish them in these elections.
