NewsX: NaMo tea, banners entice Patna to rally

  • 5 years ago
"Can a tea vendor become prime minister?" This question blazons across banners hanging from at least 20 strategically located tea stalls in Patna.
"If yes," the banners urge whoever cares to look and consider, "then come to Gandhi Maidan on October 27."

That day, and the banners don't mention this, Gandhi Maidan will host Narendra Modi's Hunkar Rally, his first public address in Bihar since he was chosen BJP's candidate for prime minister. The projection of Modi as a "humble tea vendor's son" is part of BJP's effort to cash in on his EBC roots in a state with a sizeable population of backward caste voters.
