Karnataka Election 2023: Sea of supporters in PM Modi roadshow in Bengaluru; check details

The roadshow from Someshwar Bhavan RBI Ground in Bengaluru South to Malleshwaram's Sankey Tank is expected to be covered in about three-and-half hours. The roadshow will be passing through parts of south and central Bengaluru, touching about a dozen Assembly segments.

With just four days left for Assembly polls in Karnataka, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday (May 6) held a massive road show in the city, waving at a large number of enthusiastic crowd, who had lined up on both sides of the route.

The 26 km roadshow from Someshwar Bhavan RBI Ground in Bengaluru South to Malleshwaram's Sankey Tank, was covered in about three hours.

The PM was accompanied by Bengaluru South MP, Tejasvi Surya and Bengaluru Central MP, PC Mohan. Massive arrangements have been made along the stretch, like erecting barricades, to ensure that the roadshow goes on smoothly, as tens of thousands of people are expected to gather along the roadside, official sources said.

The entire distance is decked up with saffron hues as BJP flags were seen on either side of the road, and thousands of party workers and supporters too wearing saffron shawls and caps.

Cultural teams are also stationed along the stretch where Modi will take part in the road show in a specially designed vehicle. 

The much shorter roadshow, about 10 km between Kempegowda statue at Thippasandra to Trinity circle, will be held on Sunday.
