A class 8 student wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In the letter he said that he had to miss his school as his bus was to be used for Prime Minister's rally on Tuesday.

Devansh a Madhya Pradesh boy wrote to him: "Is your meeting more important than school?"

Modi will be visiting the birthplace of revolutionary leader Chandrashekhar Azad at Bhabhra village before launching a "70 saal Azaadi, Yaad karo Qurbani" campaign to mark Independence Day.

Devansh was sad when his teacher told him that school would be shut on Tuesday and Wednesday. All his school buses would be sent to ferry people for the prime minister's event in Alirajpur.

In his letter to the PM, Devansh commented: "I have listened to your addresses in America where a lot of people were present, but they have not come to the venue in school buses".

He also added that he himself as a Modi fan and he never missed any edition of his radio talk "Mann Ki Baat". He use to even fight with his classmates who teased him about it.

Devansh also requested the prime minister to tell "Shivraj Mama" - as Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan likes to be referred to - not to divert school buses as "you are not like Congress leaders and you have concern for our studies and future."

He wrote: "If you do so then I will tell with vigour that in the meetings of my Modi uncle, crowd comes on its own and it is not managed."
