New Delhi: As the poll-bound Bihar moves closer to 1st phase of polling on October 28, the BJP has planned major poll blitzkrieg by its star campaigners in the coming days.
The star campaigners will help galvanise support for the party in upcoming elections.
Yogi Adityanath is set to hit the party’s campaign trail in Bihar on October 20, where he will address 3 poll rallies in Kaimur, Arwal and Rohtas. The election rallies are scheduled at 12 noon in Kaimur, 2 PM in Arwal and 3.15 PM in Rohtas.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will also hold 12 election rallies in poll-bound Bihar starting from October 23.
“PM Modi will hold 12 election rallies in Bihar for NDA (National Democratic Alliance) candidates. On October 23, he will hold rallies in Sasaram, Gaya and Bhagalpur. On October 28, Prime Minister will hold rallies in Darbhanga, Muzaffarpur and Patna. On November 3, he will hold rallies in Chhapra, East Champaran and Samastipur. On November 3, rallies in West Champaran, Saharsa and Araria will be held,” Fadnavis said during a press conference.
After PM Modi, Yogi is most sought after campaigner
Owing to intense popularity of Yogi Adityanath in the Hindi belt, the BJP has entrusted him to address 18 poll rallies in 6 days.
Apart from Central Ministers, Yogi Adityanath will be only chief minister to hold so many rallies in the poll-bound state.
Reports suggest that Yogi Adityanath is apparently the second most sought after campaigner in Bihar, apparently because of his developmental politics and strict Covid-19 control in the state.
It may be recalled that Yogi Adityanath’s campaign rally during the Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and Delhi polls had also attracted huge crowds.
Not long ago, BJP released its list of 30 star campaigners for the Bihar Assembly elections and that included many Central ministers as well.
