To give a boost to BJP's campaign in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh, Home Minister Amit Shah kick started the door-to-door campaign in Kairana. He met families affected by the alleged exodus of Hindus from Kairana before 2017. Accompanied by party workers and leaders, wearing saffron caps and stoles, Shah walked in the rain-drenched lanes in the winter chill and distributed pamphlets on the achievements of the BJP government, amid slogans of 'Jai Shri Ram' and 'Bharat Mata ki Jai'.
