BHOPAL: Prime Minister Narendra Modi started his poll campaign in MP with a mega roadshow at Jabalpur, also known as “Sanskardhani ” of Madhya Pradesh. A huge crowd turned up on both sides of the road to see the Prime Minister as the Prime Minister atop an open vehicle waved at them, holding a placard of lotus, the election symbol of the BJP. Chief minister Mohan Yadav, PWD minister Rakesh Singh, who represented Jabalpur in the Lok Sabha four times before contesting the 2023 state assembly election and Asish Dubey, the BJP candidate from Jabalpur replacing Rakesh Singh, were also in the vehicle with the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister’s roadshow began from Shahid Bhagat Singh Chowk with recital of mantras at 6.40 pm and moved towards Adi Shankaracharya Chowk, the culminating point of the roadshow, 1.2 Km away from the starting point as people jostled with each other to have a glimpse of the Prime Minister and capture the scene in their mobiles. Slogans of “Abki Baar 400 paar” and “Jai Shri Ram” rented the air from time to time as the vehicles slowly rolled on during the show.
Talking about the enthusiasm seen at Jabalpur during the roadshow, lawyer Rajesh Chand said ” Definitely people were enthused about the roadshow and prospect to see the Prime Minister of India. There was Modi not only on the route of the roadshow but all over the city.”
Jama Khan, a BJP worker, said ” Modi’s show has infused new energy among the party cadres in Jabalpur. We shall work with greater enthusiasm for a historic win of the party from Jabalpur.”
Local BJP MLA Ashok Rohani said ” Modi’s roadshow in Jabalpur was a historic event. It would influence voters not only in Jabalpur but all the 4 Lok Sabha seats of Mahakaushal and the state as a whole. We are fortunate to have got a chance to welcome Prime Minister Modi.”
More than 3000 personnel of security forces were deployed in the city led by a team of TPS officers to monitor the situation during the roadshow.
In the only untoward incident reported during the roadshow, 6 persons were injured when the dias created by the roadside on Rampur-Gorakhpur road broke down and fell soon after the PM’s motorcade left the spot.
All the 4 Lok Sabha seats in Mahakaushal region including Jabalpur are among the 6 seats in Madhya Pradesh which will go to polls in the first phase of polling on April 19.
