Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh): Union home minister Amit Shah flagged off the Jan Ashirwad Yatra in Sheopur virtually from Gwalior airport as due to stormy weather he had to stop midway. He was supposed to reach Sheopur and inaugurate the Jan Ashirwad Yatra, but he remained stuck at Gwalior's Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Airport as ATS clearance to his helicopter was denied due to bad weather. Later, he also addressed the public rally in Sheopur virtually.
