Modi's roadshow despite roadblock
--
Modi's first programme in the city, a rally at R K Ashram Marg that was converted into a roadshow when the cops denied permission was finally called off. "Shiela Dikshit didn't want me to come to her area and ensured that I didn't get permission for the meeting. Recently, I had met her at a dinner at the PM's house and she had asked me not to come to Delhi I didn't realise she was serious about it,'' Modi said,
A senior police official clarified that according to the Election Commission norms, one cannot block main roads and disrupt traffic in the process.
