In a strange incident, Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan gained attention from the netizens when he hurriedly and unknowingly left for Rajkot with his convoy leaving his wife Sadhana Singh behind in Junagadh.
However, when he realised after a while that his wife is not with him, he returned with the convoy of 22 vehicles to Junagadh’s Peanut Research Center, where Sadhana was sitting in the waiting room, NDTV MP reported.
The incident left many amused and added a light-hearted twist to the day’s political engagements.
The union minister was on a religious and official day-long tour to Gujarat on Saturday during which he visited Somnath Jyotirlinga temple and Gir National Park in Junagadh. Later he was scheduled to interact with the Peanut Research Center farmers and Lakhpati Didi beneficiaries. As he was also scheduled to take a flight from Rajkot at around 8 o’clock later in the day, so he was in a hurry.
During the visit to the research centre, he reviewed the work with the staff, while his wife was sitting in the waiting house. After that Shivraj held an interaction with the Lakhpati Didi scheme beneficiaries, the report added.
He kept looking at his watch again and again on the stage of the program. He himself said on the mike, “The road to Rajkot is bad, next time I will come leisurely.”
He cut short his speech and hurriedly left Junagadh for Rajkot with the convoy. On the other hand, Sadhna had returned after visiting Girnar and was sitting in the waiting room.
After travelling for around 10 minutes, he realised that Sadhna was not with him. Then he immediately called her and returned with the convoy and left for Rajkot with his wife.
