Cast Your Vote & Pick New PM: Akhilesh on Modi’s Twitter Appeal

PM Modi tagged social media influencers, including politicians, asking them to encourage people to vote.

Soon after Narendra Modi took to Twitter urging politicians, celebrities and media personalities to boost voter turnout this Lok Sabha elections, Akhilesh Yadav seemed to concur with him – with a twist.

The Samajwadi Party president said that he was happy that the prime minister was appealing to the mahagathbandhan for a mahaparivartan (change). He further said that voters should cast ballots in large numbers, but to choose a new prime minister.

दिल ख़ुश हुआ कि प्रधान मंत्री जी भी #MahaGathbandhan से #MahaParivartan की अपील कर रहे हैं। मैं भी सभी भारतीय नागरिकों से अनुरोध करता हूँ कि ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा संख्या में मतदान करें और नया प्रधान मंत्री चुनें। https://t.co/8BsWOdClud
