BJP leaders to have tea with people while listening to Mann ki Baat

November 25, 2017 17:39

Seeking to exploit a crude meme tweeted by the Congress mocking the Prime Minister's `chaiwala' past, BJP leaders, including Arun Jaitley and Amit Shah, will listen to PM's radio talk 'Mann ki Baat' while having tea with people across poll-bound Gujarat tomorrow.

The event, to be held at all 50,128 polling booths in 182 Assembly seats, is named `Mann ki Baat - Chai Ke Saath'.

While BJP chief Amit Shah will attend the program in the Dariyapur constituency in Ahmedabad, the Union finance minister will have tea with people at a booth in Adajan area of the Surat-West seat.

The event is being organised ahead of Narendra Modi's tour of Gujarat on November 27 and 29, during which he will address eight rallies in Saurashtra and south Gujarat which would be going to polls on December 9.
