5 Union Ministers From Gujarat To Participate In Yatras From August 16

"BJP workers, as well as party office-bearers, would also take part in these five ''Jan Ashirvad Yatras'' between August 16 and 20," said Gujarat BJP media coordinator

Five newly-inducted Union ministers from Gujarat, including Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya, will take part in yatras organised by the BJP in various parts of their home state from August 16 to 20, a party functionary said on Tuesday. The "Jan Ashirvad Yatras" is organised by the Gujarat BJP unit to reach out to people, he said. "BJP workers, as well as party office-bearers, would also take part in these five ''Jan Ashirvad Yatras'' between August 16 and 20. Since each Yatra would last for three days, some of them would overlap. Apart from thanking the people for electing BJP in elections, this is also an exercise to establish a dialogue with the people," said Yagnesh Dave, media coordinator, Gujarat BJP. Notably, Assembly elections in Gujarat are due in December next year.
