SRINAGAR: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah on Saturday said Narendra Modi should be elected as the Prime Minister once again to give a “befitting” reply to terrorism and Pakistan. Shah was campaigning for party candidate B Y Raghavendra, son of Karnataka BJP President and former Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa. He also held a roadshow at Bhadravathi in Shimogga.
“This election is not only about making Raghavendra Member of Parliament, but to make Narendra Modi the Prime Minister,” Shah said at the end of road show.
“Why should we make Narendra Modi Prime Minister, to secure the country, to give a befitting reply to terrorism and Pakistan. In order to give a befitting reply to Pakistan, people of Shimogga will have to press the ballot button adjacent to the Lotus symbol and Raghavendra’s name,” he said.
Noting that he too was facing election from Gandhinagar Lok Sabha seat in Gujarat on April 23, Shah said he had come to campaign for Raghavendra to ensure his victory.
Hundreds of enthusiastic BJP workers cheered the BJP chief chanting “Modi, Modi” as the “Rath,” a modified vehicle, covered little more than one and half kilometre distance with Raghavendra, among others, accompanying him. (PTK)
