Home Minister Amit Shah, who is in Gandhinagar in his home state of Gujarat on Tuesday (May 7) to cast his vote for the Lok Sabha Elections 2024, had a smile on his face after he noticed a young boy calling him, "Oh Amit Kaka, Jai Shri Ram". Not only Home Minister Amit Shah, but also the BJP party workers and voters couldn't resist themselves from breaking into a laughter given the casual nature of the young boy calling Amit Shah screaming at the top of his lungs and greeting him in pure Gujarati style.
The fact that the young boy called Amit Shah as if he was calling a member of his family and the rustic nature of the greeting impressed everyone including Home Minister Amit Shah.
The video of the incident went viral on social media platform X. Home Minister Amit Shah also responded to the call by the young boy with folded hands and looked amused with what happened.
Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel were among the early voters.
While PM Modi exercised his franchise at Nishan School in the Ranip area, Shah cast his vote at a polling booth in the Naranpura area. Home Minister Amit Shah was seen with his family on the voting day.

Both the areas are in Ahmedabad but fall under the Gandhinagar Lok Sabha seat. Home Minister Amit Shah is looking to retain the seat after winning it with over five lakh votes in 2019.
