People of Gurur turned out in large numbers on road to welcome chief minister with great enthusiasm.

During the ‘padyatra’, locals gave a rousing welcome to chief minister, showering flower petals, raising slogans of ‘Kaka Zindabad’, and presenting him flower bouquets. Baghel met people standing on the side of the road waiting for him to come. He was also given a traditional welcome by women with ‘aarti’ and applying ’tilak’. The youth clicked selfies with chief minister.  The locals also garlanded the chief minister and tied a colorful ‘safa’ on his head.
