Amid election fever in Varanasi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s popularity in this holy city can be seen from streets to stands, with booksellers saying titles written on him are flying off the shelf ahead of the polls in his constituency.
Among the books doing well are “The Real Modi” and “Narendra Modi: Ek Sakaratmak Soch”, according to booksellers in the temple town. While the first one is an old paperback edition in Hindi, it is the second title that is catching the eyes of readers in the temple town. Printed by publisher Apurva Shah of Ahmedabad, “Narendra Modi: Ek Sakaratmak Soch” is an unusual book as it is shaped like cut-out put up during election rallies.
