Newly Inducted Ministers To Go For BJP's Jan Ashirwad Yatra On August 16

The Jan Ashirwad Yatra, which is slated to be held between August 16 to 20, is aimed at seeking blessings of the people by 43 new ministers.

Chairing the last Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) parliamentary party meeting of the current Monsoon Session, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said the newly-inducted cabinet ministers would go for the Jan Ashirwad Yatra from August 16 and the remaining Union Cabinet Ministers would do it on August 19. The BJP parliamentary party meeting was held on Tuesday morning. The yatra, which is slated to be held between August 16 to 20, is aimed at seeking blessings of the people by 43 new ministers. Also, four of the new ministers are from poll-bound Uttar Pradesh. The yatra will seek to inform people about the achievements of BJP-led central government in internal, external, economic, social, health spheres and programmes aimed at boosting employment through its focus on self-reliance. This would also be done through banners, hoardings and advertisements.
