Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath held a mega roadshow in support of BJP candidate from Ayodhya Lallu Singh on Sunday. The high-voltage campaign led by the Prime Minister saw a tremendous response, with people turning up in large numbers.
The roadshow started from Sugriva Fort and ended at Lata Chowk via the Ram Path. It took more than an hour to cover this two-kilometre jam-packed road as people warmly greeted the PM and the CM, voicing their support for them in this election. Along the entire route, people were chanting slogans in support of Modi-Yogi, and both leaders also greeted the supporters with folded hands and appealed for votes showing the 'lotus' flower.
People kept chanting 'Jai Shri Ram' throughout the roadshow to greet the PM and the CM. Along the route of the roadshow, the sound of conch shells echoed in some places, while women were performing the aarti of PM Modi and others. Artists also showcased glimpses of Awadh's culture through dance.
In the roadshow, women clad in saffron clothes were walking ahead of the chariot. People and devotees from across the country thronged both sides of the streets in large numbers to catch a glimpse of PM Modi and CM Yogi. They also captured the moment on their mobile phone cameras.
