Shah to address 'Ekatam Parv' in MP today

New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party president Amit Shah will address 'Ekatam Parv' on Monday in Omkareshwar of poll-bound Madhya Pradesh. Shah also will unveil Adi Shankaracharya's 108 ft high statue there.

Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan will also accompany Shah in the programme along with other senior party leaders of both State and national and other State ministers.

Chauhan's tenure is also known for mass engaging programmes, like 'Narmada Yatra' in last year. During that time he announced the Ekatam programme for collection and storage of metal for the statue. It can be denoted as the 'Janjagran Abhiyan.'
