A video has gone viral on social media in which BJP supporters can be seen near Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s cavalcade on a flyover, where he had to wait for 20 minutes.
The farm bodies have uploaded the video on Twitter saying, “A clear glimpse of BJP supporters near PM Modi’s car. How can PM Modi question farmers?”

Several media reports suggest that farmers were agitating on Prime Minister’s way to the rally venue.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi told the security personnel at Bathinda Airport to “thank” Punjab CM that he reached the airport alive.
BJP had alleged the Punjab government of a security lapse when Prime Minister visited Punjab.
On the other hand, Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi said that there was no security lapse during Narendra Modi’s visit. He also said that a different route was offered to the Prime Minister, but he chose to return to Delhi.
The matter has reached the Supreme Court and it has directed the Registrar General to protect all the records related to Prime Minister’s visit to Punjab.
