In Odisha, Modi is scheduled to address two election rallies in Sundergarh and Sonepur on Saturday. BJP leader and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is also scheduled to attend a public meeting at Berhampur on Saturday. Election to the 14 Lok Sabha seats and 147-member Odisha Assembly would be held in four phases starting from April 11.
Modi will address an election rally in Balod district of Chhattisgarh. This will be Modi's first rally in Chhattisgarh after the Lok Sabha election dates were announced last month. Polling for 11 seats in the state will be held in three phases- on April 11, 18 and 23. BJP's candidates on these seats Mohan Mandavi (Kanker), Chunnilal Sahu (Mahasamund), Santosh Pandey (Rajnandgaon) and Vijay Baghel (Durg) will be present on the occasion.
After the rally, Modi will reach Raipur, from where he will leave for Maharashtra. In Maharashtra, PM Modi will address a public meeting in Nanded.
The PM Narendra Modi's rally holds significance as the BJP is mainly banking on Modi factor and development work done by the Centre to garner votes.
