PM Modi to meet ISRO scientists in Bengaluru tomorrow; BJP workers told to hold Tricolour, not party flags

The BJP workers will greet Prime Minister Narendra Modi with national flags during his visit to Bengaluru on Saturday to visit the ISRO Centre.

The PM will arrive in Bengaluru from Johannesburg around 5.30 am and visit the ISRO Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC) at Peenya where he will meet the ISRO team of scientists to personally congratulate them on the success of the Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission.

The BJP state unit has arranged a rousing reception outside the HAL airport and at the ISTRAC centre in Peenya. The police have made arrangements for people to gather at both sides of the main roads.


The party has told its cadre that the PM is visiting the city to celebrate ISRO's achievement and it has nothing to do with the party. The party has asked its workers not to carry the BJP flags, but to wave at the PM with the Indian Tricolour.

The PM will spend an hour at the ISRO centre, interacting with scientists and will leave for Delhi by 9 am.

The Bengaluru City Police have released an advisory asking people to avoid using roads from HAL to Peenya for about five hours from 4.30 am.
