Guwahati: Prime Minister Narendra Modi was accorded a warm welcome upon his arrival in Guwahati this evening, marking his inaugural visit to address an election rally in Assam ahead of the Lok Sabha election 2024. Arriving at 7 PM from his previous rally in Raiganj, West Bengal, PM Modi embarked on a spirited road show through the capital city, drawing throngs of enthusiastic supporters lining the Guwahati-Shillong road.
Thousands of residents poured onto the streets, brandishing placards proclaiming ‘once again Modi government’ alongside the national flag, in a vibrant display of support for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
