BJP state secretary Vineet Joshi said the bus has a hydraulic ladder and a platform on the rooftop for the party leaders to address public.

The vehicle is fitted with a LED screen, laptops and printers. The bus has space for holding meeting, taking rest with an attached toilet.

Other than Jaitley who have confirmed to address a rally on January 8 in Amritsar, state BJP chief Vijay Sampla is also trying to rope in other central leaders, including home minister Rajnath Singh, road transport and highways minister Nitin Gadkari, minister for urban development and housing Venkaiah Naidu. Delhi BJP president Manoj Tiwari is also expected to address a rally in Ludhiana. “Air connectivity is a big issue these days, due to which confirmation of most of leaders is pending, but we want all of them around,” said BJP state secretary Vineet Joshi.
