The BJP has set an ambitious target of cobbling up 10 lakh people for PM Modi’s address, said party insiders. With the mega event, it wants to showcase its strength ahead of the polls, they said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address a large gathering of BJP workers in Bhopal on September 25 to mark the formal culmination of the party’s five ‘Jan Ashirwad Yatras’ being held to reach out to the masses before the year-end assembly polls in M.P., a party leader said on September 21.
This will be PM Modi’s third visit to the State in the past 45 days, an indication of the BJP’s attempt to retain power in the central State by leveraging his popularity.
