Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday conducted a grand roadshow in Kerala’s capital, attracting massive crowds as the NDA intensified its campaign ahead of the April 9 Assembly elections.

Modi arrived in Thiruvananthapuram in the evening after addressing a public gathering in Thiruvalla and began a 1.5-km roadshow from Killipalam to Karamana junction. The route witnessed an extraordinary turnout, with large numbers of supporters lining the streets.

Party workers and enthusiastic followers gathered along both sides, waving flags, chanting slogans, and trying to catch a glimpse of the Prime Minister as his convoy slowly moved through the packed stretch.

Standing on a decorated open vehicle, Modi greeted the crowd with folded hands and waves, occasionally holding up the lotus symbol of the BJP, which drew loud applause.

The event had a festive feel, with traditional performances taking place along the route, adding vibrancy to the political campaign.

Senior BJP leaders and candidates, including Rajeev Chandrasekhar, R Sreelekha, V Muraleedharan, and Karamana Jayan, were part of the procession, showcasing the party’s strength in the state.

Many onlookers, including women, gathered to witness the event, some showering flowers and others capturing the moments on their phones.

The roadshow highlighted the BJP-led NDA’s efforts to boost cadre morale and expand its grassroots reach in Kerala during the final leg of campaigning.

Party leaders expressed optimism that Modi’s high-energy campaign would convert into electoral gains, helping the NDA improve its performance and secure a significant number of seats in the polls.
