The CM also sat in a front seat and interacted with the bus driver and conductor for a while.

Dera Bassi BJP leader Gurdarshan Singh Saini, whom the Chief Minister met in Dera Bassi said, “The Chief Minister makes a point to interact with public often.”

Upon reaching Ambala, the Chief Minister alighted from the bus and resumed his journey in the official car, in the protection of his cavalcade.
