The roadshow of Prime Minister Narendra Modi painted the Thrissur city in Kerala saffron on January 3 (Wednesday). Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) flags, saffron balloons, ribbons, festoons and banners created a sea of saffron in the city. The Prime minister was showered with bright saffron and yellow marigold petals throughout his roadshow.
The Prime Minister, who arrived from Lakshadweep after a two-day visit to the Union Territory, was in the city to address the women’s conference ‘Women’s Power with Modi’ organised by the Kerala unit of the BJP to express gratitude for passing the Women’s Reservation Bill.
Excitement was palpable as BJP workers poured into Thrissur city from morning itself. They carried cut-outs of Mr. Modi, drums and raised slogans. As only women were allowed into the venue of the conference, men thronged both sides of the Swaraj Round.
