PTI: Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi's Vivekanand Youth Convention in Morbi town here and Jamnagar district has been postponed following a bandh call given by the NDA against FDI and recent hike in fuel prices.

"The chief minister was to attend the conventions in Morbi and Jamnagar on September 20 but the convention has been postponed," a senior BJP leader said here today adding fresh dates would be soon issued by the CMO.
