Every Indian is saying 'Main Bhi Chowkidar': PM tells security guards

March 20, 2019 17:44

PM Narendra Modi's audio interaction with security guards across the country has begun. The interaction with security guards is via audio bridge. "Maximum languages across the world have understood the word 'Chowkidaar', it seems as if they all have accepted it in their vocabulary.

"You must have noticed that these days everywhere it is you who is being discussed, be it TV or social media, be it in India or abroad.

"Today every Indian is saying 'Main bhi Chowkidaar'. I want to apologise as some people in last few months for their vested interests have run a disinformation campaign against 'chowkidaars'. It is unfortunate that language of these people has hurt you."

The Bharatiya Janata Party on Sunday stepped up its Main bhi chowkidar campaign with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other party leaders, including its President Amit Shah, prefixing the word 'chowkidar' to their names in their Twitter profile as they sought peoples support in the Lok Sabha elections.

The party leaders also put out short advertisement videos showing that people from different walks of life have turned chowkidars to do their bit for the country like Modi.

Modi's Twitter profile identified him as Chowkidar Narendra Modi and similar was the case with other BJP leaders as they launched a coordinated campaign.
