Quite some time ago, Jana Sena Party chief Pawan Kalyan had announced that he would be launching his campaign vehicle Vaarahi after performing an official pooja for the vehicle at the Kongattu Hanuman Temple. The pooja ceremony took place at the temple today, on Tuesday, 24th January. A group of pujaris performed pooja for the vehicle at the temple, which is in the Jagtial district of Telangana.
A massive group of people were gathered at the temple, to get a look at Pawan, who greeted all of them from an open top vehicle. From now on, Pawan will take up his yatra, where he will visit all the Narasimha Swamy temples in the Telugu states. After that, it is expected that he will set out on a campaign tour throughout Andhra Pradesh.
Earlier, a lot of objections were raised against Vaarahi by the Andhra Pradesh government, which objected to the colour of Vaarahi. However, the vehicle was later given the green signal in Telangana, and was even registered here. There was no objection to the vehicle’s colour, which was thought to be olive green. Since Vaarahi is not olive green, it was given a green signal.
