Delhi, January 9: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) took out a bike rally from party-state office as part of its Assembly elections campaign on Thursday. The rally was flagged off by BJP MP Meenakshi Lekhi and was led by party's state president Manoj Tiwari and leader Vijay Goel. Netizens were quick to spot that many of the riders were riding without a helmet. They tagged Delhi police complaining of no helmets.
More than a hundred bike-borne BJP workers, donning saffron T-shirts and sporting stickers of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, followed the leaders from the party's headquarters at Delhi's Pandit Pant Marg. In the middle of chants of "Bharat Mata ki Jai" and a resolution to "defeat opponents", the rally moved its way through the Delhi roads.
