In a bid to woo the farmers, Modi, at a rally in Rohaniya, assured that their incomes would be dobuled by the year 2022.

"We have brought the Soil Health Card. We are training our farmers with scientific methods of farming," he said.

Modi dubbed the Samajwadi Party government as 'anti-farmer' and asked why farmers were not getting the benefit of Fasal Bima Yojana.

On the third day of back-to-back campaigning in his parliamentary constituency Varanasi, Modi earlier visited the famous Gadwaghat Ashram, a place most revered by the Yadavs.

Modi drove to the ashram at around 10.30 am. Hundreds of people lined the route to the ashram and shouted "Modi, Modi" as the prime minister's cavalcade passed.

He was welcomed by the management of the ashram and many seers offered him garlands made of rudraksh beads.

The ashram has over a crore followers and is said to have a powerful say in the political decision making of the Yadav community.
