The state government has made arrangements to ferry people to the rally ground in buses, with mechanics onboard to help repair any technical snag that might occur during their travel, reported PTI. Vehicles travelling to Bhopal for this purpose have been exempted from paying the toll.

At the inauguration of the redeveloped Rani Kamalapati railway station, the Prime Minister will also flag off two new MEMU trains between Ujjain-Indore and Indore-Ujjain routes. MP Governor Mangubhai Patel, Chouhan, Union ministers Virendra Kumar, Narendra Singh Tomar, Jyotiraditya Scindia, Prahlad Patel, Faggan Singh Kulaste, and L Murugan will also be present for the occasion.

Besides the governor, the chief minister, ministers, MLAs, security personnel, and other government officials, many other people will also be undergoing the RT-PCR tests before the Prime Minister’s arrival.
