New Delhi : Bharatiya Janata Party president Nitin Gadkari Friday witnessed a demonstration of a solar cycle rickshaw here as part of the BJP’s Antyodaya programme to reach out to the poor and disadvantaged sections of the society.
Gadkari, who also took a ride in the rickshaw, discussed “relevant issues” with the officials of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), who designed and manufactured the rickshaw.
Gadkari has earlier said in his speeches that the party needs to reach out to the poor and unorganised sector workers to expand its electoral base.
The party is also planning to launch a union for unorganised sector workers.
