On learning that his refurbished Swaraj Mazda [ Get Quote ] had developed a snag due to excessive heat, Advani, who is on his Bharat Uday Yatra, decided to visit the village on the Hazaribagh-Ranchi border.

He walked about half a mile to reach the village and stayed there for about 30 minutes.

The villagers, seeing the deputy PM, were surprised and brought out a cot for him.

Advani distributed fruit, sweets and candies among the kids there.
