Ahmedabad: On Tuesday campaigning for the first phase of the Gujarat election will come to a close in 89 of Gujarat's 182 seats.

The first round of elections will take place on December 1.

BJP President J P Nadda and Union Minister Smriti Irani will each campaign for BJP candidates running in the first round of voting on Tuesday in Bhavnagar and Gandhidham, respectively, in the Kutch district.

Among notable candidates in the first phase is Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) chief ministerial face Isudan Gadhvi, who is contesting from the Khambhalia seat in Devbhumi Dwarka district.
