BJP’s Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi appears in his first national level television programme on India TV. Incidentally, this Aap Ki Adalat with Rajat Sharma comes minutes after Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi fielded questions in his second televised interview, this time on a Hindi channel.

Incidentally, the audience was an integral part of the programme and kept chanting ‘Modi, Modi’ at regular intervals. Modi also asked questions to the audience, getting answers in chorus from those in the crowd. It seemed the BJP leader was feeling at home, as if he was in a BJP rally somewhere.
