Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat visits Moga Hospital and inquires about the condition of a Modi supporter who has been injured. The Congress's rage is definitely obvious, according to the Union Minister. Devpriya Tyagi, who was on the way to the Ferozepur protest, was allegedly assaulted by Congress goons, according to Shekhawat. Similarly, individuals who came to hear PM Modi speak at the gathering were exposed to violence in numerous areas.

Shekhawat claimed that the Congress, scared by Prime Minister Modi's popularity, wanted to dissuade ordinary people from attending the gathering. He became so terrified in Punjab that he enlisted the help of his dormant chief minister to beat the public. The Union Minister remarked that wrath of the Congress is plainly obvious.

Following a significant security breach, Prime Minister Narendra Modi abruptly cancelled his visit to Ferozepur, Punjab, where he was due to lay the foundation stones for projects worth Rs 42,750 crore. Today morning, the PM landed at Bathinda from whence he was to head to the National Martyrs Memorial in Hussainiwala by helicopter, the Ministry of Home Affairs stated in a statement. PM waited around 20 minutes for the weather to clear out due to rain and bad visibility.
