Poster war resumes in Madhya Pradesh ahead of PM Modi’s visit

On June 26, a day before Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to election-bound Madhya Pradesh, the ‘corruption poster war’ involving top leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress in the State has intensified. 

Posters of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan with the slogan “50% laao; phone pe kaam karaao” (‘bring 50% and get work done on a phone call’) were put up across the State, some even on cut-outs of Mr. Modi put up by the BJP as a welcome gesture for the Prime Minister.

Mr. Modi will be addressing a ‘Mera booth sabse majboot’ booth-level workers’ training programme in the State capital. He will also flag-off five new Vande Bharat Express trains.
