Ambaji/Ahmedabad: Prime Minister Narendra Modi ended the campaign for the second phase of Gujarat assembly polls on Tuesday by taking a seaplane ride from the Sabarmati River in Ahmedabad to Dharoi Dam in north Gujarat and returned after offering prayers at the famous Ambaji Temple.
He boarded the single-engine seaplane from near the Sardar Bridge connecting the old city with Ahmedabad West and flew to Dharoi Dam in Mehsana district.
A special floating platform was constructed on the river to facilitate the prime minister board the plane.
The plane took off from the Sardar Bridge-end amid chants of "Modi-Modi" from BJP workers and city-dwellers, who flocked to the Sabarmati riverfront.
