Master Stroke: When PM Narendra Modi took Varanasi by storm

Cheered on by a massive crowd, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday held a mega roadshow in Varanasi, taking his parliamentary constituency by storm. Huge crowds turned out to cheer their parliamentarian, who was symbolically dressed in a saffron kurta and scarf. In a show of strength, Modi was joined by BJP President Amit Shah, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and other senior BJP leaders.
Modi started his 7-km roadshow by first garlanding the statue of Banaras Hindu University (BHU) founder Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya. He was greeted by his supporters who throng in thousands as his cavalcade passed through the streets of Kashi.
