PRIME Minister Narendra Modi on Monday met one of his long-time admirers during a visit to Haryana’s Yamunanagar, who had vowed 14 years back that he will wear footwear only after the BJP strongman became the Prime Minister and he got to meet him. Modi shared a video on X of his meeting with Rampal Kashyap, whom he gifted a new pair of shoes and also helped to put them on. “At today’s public meeting in Yamunanagar, I met Shri Rampal Kashyap Ji from Kaithal.

 

He had taken a vow 14 years ago that he will only wear footwear after I became the PM and he got to meet me. In the video posted by the Prime Minister on X, Kashyap, wearing a white kurta-pyjama, is seen walking barefoot to meet Modi, who greets him by shaking his hands. Then Modi picked up a pair of grey sports shoes and told him, “Toh Aaj Hum Tumko Juta Pehna Rahe Hai, Lekin Baad Mein Phir Kabhi Aise Karna Nahi.”
