Wearing a T-shirt bearing Modi's image, Srivastava said he has taken 15-days leave from his employer to campaign for the BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate. He said scores of BJP supporters from Madhya Pradesh have been campaigning here for Modi.
As Congress campaign witnessed a fresh enthusiasm in the last few days, a large number of party supporters have arrived here to canvass for Rai, who has termed the fight as being one between a “son of soil and outsiders”.
“We have been Congress supporters for last so many decades.
I know Congress has not been able to live up to expectations. But still the party has never tried to divide the country on religious lines.
I have come here on my own to campaign for Ajay Rai,” said 60-year-old Imam Chayani, a native of Rajkot in Gujarat.
