PM Modi is on a two-day visit to Varanasi – his parliamentary constituency – where he will launch 37 projects worth Rs 19,000 crore for development of the region. He will also launch the second edition of Kashi Tamil Sangamam and flag off a new train between Kanyakumari and Varanasi.
This is not the first time the Prime Minister, who has been vocal against VIP culture, stopped his convoy for an ambulance. Similar incidents were reported last year in Ahmedabad and Himachal Pradesh’s Kangra.
At an event in 2019, PM Modi had stopped his speech midway and asked for an ambulance after a cameraman covering it had fainted.
