Dear PM Modi, Take a Trip From Wayanad to Rampur Via Chicago

Also taking a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday, Rahul Gandhi told the media, “There have been many people in Indian history who had arrogance to believe that they're invincible and bigger than the people of India. Narendra Modi, for the last 5 years, has done nothing for the people of India. His invincibility will be in full view after election results.”

UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi sounded off a warning to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the first day of the Lok Sabha elections, as she referred to the poll results of 2004 when the UPA came to power.

Asked if she thought PM Modi is invincible, the UPA chairperson, who filed her nomination from Raebareli said, "Not at all. Don't forget 2004. Vajpayee Ji was invincible, but we won."

Sonia Gandhi and her family members on Thursday, 11 April will take part in a ‘havan’ at the Congress’ central office. She will undertake a 700-metre road show before filing the nomination, party spokesman LKP Singh told the media.

Sonia Gandhi is trying to retain the seat for the fifth time. She had won the seat in 2004, 2006 (bypolls), 2009 and 2014.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will be visiting Amethi on Thursday where he will accompany Union Minister and BJP candidate Smriti Irani, who will be filing her nomination papers, a party spokesperson cited by PTI said.

The chief minister will also participate in a roadshow before the nomination and later address an election meeting, BJP's Amethi media in-charge Govind Singh said.

Irani was to file her nomination on 17 April, but since it is a holiday, she will now file the papers on 11 April.
