Prime Minister Narendra Modi will today hold a roadshow in Ranchi as part of his campaign for the upcoming assembly polls in Jharkhand. The 3-kilometer route will pass through four assembly constituencies: Ranchi, Hatia, Kanke, and Khijri. Several BJP leaders from the state are expected to join the event.

Additionally, over 500 Brahmins are likely to blow conch shells during the roadshow in support of the Prime Minister. Assam Chief Minister and Jharkhand BJP co-in-charge, Himanta Biswa Sarma, said that the roadshow in Ranchi will be 'historic'. 

"PM Modi will hold a historic 3 km roadshow in Ranchi, where a large number of people are expected to show up. It will be a historic moment," Sarma was quoted as saying by ANI. Prime Minister Modi held rallies in Chaibasa and Garhwa on November 5, a day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah unveiled the BJP's manifesto for the Jharkhand assembly elections.

PM Modi highlighted the party's slogan of 'roti, beti aur maati' (bread, daughters, and land) and stated that people of Jharkhand want the saffron party to come back in power. "The entire Jharkhand is saying today, 'Roti, beti aur maati ki pukaar, Jharkhand me BJP-NDA sarkar'... When the BJP government was formed for the first time, Atal Bihari Bajpayee got the opportunity in Delhi to serve the nation; Jharkhand was formed," PM Modi said.

He also accused the Congress, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), and Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD) of vote bank politics and maligning the image of Jharkhand through scandals. He also accused Chief Minister Hemant Soren of disrespecting ex-CM Champai Soren.

"JMM-Congress-RJD have endangered the identity of Jharkhand. Infiltrators are their biggest vote bank... Infiltrators are targeting tribal daughters through lies, fraud, and deceit; they are marrying and snatching tribals' land. They are snatching your daughter, bread, and land. I assure you that as soon as the BJP government is formed in Jharkhand, every step will be taken to stop infiltration," PM Modi said.
