After Modi's #Trichy youth conference, the next morning when police were clearing up their mini-control room, they found 5 strange boys who were roaming there with bags. When police enquired - "sir, we are frm Subramaniapuram in Trichy. Whatever political meeting or conference

is held in this ground, we come here on the same night or morning hours to collect the #Liquor bottles to sell in the scrap shop for 50 paisa to Re.1 per bottle & we used to earn Rs 200 to Rs 400 on each such event. Even in the last #DMK meeting the next day we collected around

1500 bottles. But for Modi's #BJP meeting, we could not find even a single bottle in the whole ground. We are coming round & around & not a single bottle in any corner of the ground in Trichy, we are much disappointed, sir!". #Police seem were stunned & pleasantly surprised
