PM event on BookMyShow sold out in 1 hr
Prime Minister Narendra Modi's event in Vadodara sold out on the digital booking platform BookMyShow within one hour of registrations opening, according to The Times of India. The Vadodara Municipal Corporation used BookMyShow to manage free registrations for Modi's Tuesday programme. Once all 42,000+ seats were filled, the registration was closed, with the remaining applicants added to a waiting list.
This marked a first-of-its-kind initiative by the government. Participants will receive a digital M-Ticket via their BookMyShow account, featuring a secure QR code for entry verification. The event aims to inaugurate and dedicate several development projects in Vadodara, including sections of the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor, freight train services, and national highway projects.
Modi will also travel to Mumbai to inaugurate the Global Fintech Fest 2026, discussing topics such as AI, tokenisation, and quantum technology in finance.
