New Delhi: With just over a month to go for 2019 Lok Sabha polls, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is all set to step up it's “Main Bhi Chowkidar” campaign. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address over 25 lakh 'chowkidars' (watchmen and security personnel) across the nation via audio bridge technology on Wednesday, a day before Holi. The party launched its 'Main Bhi Chowkidar' poll campaign on Saturday with PM Modi pre-fixing `chowkidar` to his Twitter handle. Several BJP leaders including party president Amit Shah and Union ministers followed the suit and added `chowkidar` to their names on the microblogging site. The BJP also released its 'Main Bhi Chowkidar' caller tune on Wednesday. Subscribers of various cellular networks will now be able to access and download the caller tune. “You may now make #MainBhiChowkidar song as your Caller Tune,” tweeted the BJP's official handle on the microblogging platform. Party's media head and Rajya Sabha MP Anil Baluni said Modi will share the "colours of Holi" with watchmen across the country in the address on Wednesday. The prime minister is also scheduled to interact with people, who have pledged their support to the 'Main bhi chowkidar' (I also am a watchman) campaign, from 500 places in the country on March 31.
