Bihar Polls: With just two weeks remaining in the Bihar Assembly election, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will kick off his campaign from Samastipur district on October 24. The prime minister will also visit Karpuri Gram, the birthplace of former Bihar Chief Minister and socialist leader Karpuri Thakur. PM Modi is expected to address a mass gathering and is also likely to make announcements regarding the upcoming polls. The decision to commence the campaign from the land of the Bharat Ratna awardee is also seen as an attempt to send a positive message to the Dalit voters of the state.
Ramnath Thakur, Karpuri Thakur's son and Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, stated that the prime minister's visit will energise the party workers ahead of the state polls, adding that the current NDA government has worked for the benefit of the margianalised section of society. "Jannayak Karpuri Thakur's activities, his intellect, his path of struggle, he has been fighting since 1952 and has been winning," Thakur stated.
"In today's political parties, in order to hold on to that role, in order to give that momentum, it will be useful to give life to the workers after Prime Minister's visit," he added. While providing details on PM Modi's visit, Bihar BJP State President Dilip Jaiswal stated that the prime minister will also address a rally in Begusarai on the same day. Apart from this, PM Modi will also visit Bihar on October 30 to address rallies in Muzaffarpur and Chapra.
