KOCHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived at Nedumbassery Airport for a two-day Kerala visit. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and Governor Arif Muhammad Khan received the Prime Minister at the airport.

As per reports PM Modi has arrived at the Naval Air Station on a special flight and has already started his night road show in Kochi. The Prime Minister's roadshow will cover a total of 1.3 km from KPCC Junction on MG Road to the Guest House after crossing Hospital Road.

The prime minister will stay at the guest house and will travel to Guruvayur at 6:30 am on Wednesday to attend the marriage of BJP leader Suresh Gopi’s daughter. The PM will also take Darshan at the Guruvayur temple tomorrow. At 10:10 am on Wednesday, the prime minister will visit the revered Triprayar Sri Rama temple. By evening, PM Modi will return to Wellington island in Kochi to lay the foundation for infrastructure projects worth Rs 4000 crore. He will also attend a working body meeting of the BJP at Marine Drive before returning to Delhi by Wednesday evening.

It is expected that PM Modi will walk for 50 m in the road show when his cavalcade reaches the premises of the guest house. BJP supporters from four districts across Kerala have thronged to the spot to see a glimpse of their main man. Such a political road show especially at night is unseen in Kochi and the attendance also includes people who are senior citizens. BJP with this move is trying to move a tad ahead with preparations and PM Modi’s repeated visits to Kerala reaffirm the central leadership's indomitable spirit to make inroads in the southern part of the country.

As of now, the roadshow is moving at a slow pace amidst fervent chants of ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ from energized supporters.
