Har Har Modi chants in every BJP office

May 23, 2019 16:39

Celebrations across BJP offices across the country. President Amit Shah arrived at the party headquarters in New Delhi and was welcomed by party workers.

In Lucknow, saffron hues dominated the party's state headquarters in Lucknow with jubilant party workers wearing saffron stoles, adorning marigold flowers around their necks and holding lotus cutouts as the trends indicated a thumping victory for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The BJP workers also burst crackers and danced to drum beats as women supporters wore saffron attire and painted their nails in the same hue.

In a stark contrast, Congress, Bahujan Samaj Party and Samajwadi Party offices wore a forlorn look with no party workers or supporters in sight. Inside the Bharatiya Janata Party office, women workers led the celebration by shouting slogans and distributing sweets.

They held cutouts of Modi and banners reading 'Har Har Modi' and 'Bachcha surakshit Godi mein, Desh surakshit Modi mein'. On the other hand, road before the BSP office wore a deserted look.

A couple of OB vans deployed by the media were the only vehicles seen outside the party office. A stone's throw away is the Congress office where news persons outnumbered party supporters. Under the scorching sun, even shop owners selling campaign material outside the SP office sat in stunned silence as those gathered around the tea kiosks talked in hushed tones.
