Ahmedabad: A day after a spectacular victory in Uttar Pradesh assembly elections and retaining three other states, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Friday reached the next poll-bound state – Gujarat – to a grand welcome. The PM is in his home state on a two-day visit to participate in various events. He will address the Gujarat Panchayat Mahasammelan, which over one lakh representatives from the three tiers of the Panchayati Raj institutions in the state will attend.
Riding in an open jeep decorated with floral garlands, PM Modi waved to the hundreds of supporters and admirers who gathered by the roadside as his roadshow began from the airport to Kamalam, BJP’s state headquarters in Gandhinagar. Gujarat will go to the polls at the end of this year.
“Leaving for Gujarat, where I will be attending various programmes today and tomorrow. At 4 PM today, will address a Panchayat Mahasammelan, where several representatives from Panchayati Raj institutions will attend,” he tweeted Thursday this week.
