Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Karnataka for the 7th time in this year on Saturday. PM Modi will reach Karnataka on March 25 to take part in various programmes, including inaugurations of government projects and for attending a public rally in the poll-bound state, at Chikkaballapur and Davangere. On Saturday, PM will land at Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) Airport in Bengaluru. Then he will fly to Chikkaballapur for the inauguration of Sri Madhusudan Sai Institute of Medical Sciences and Research. Later, PM will fly to Bengaluru on Saturday afternoon for the inauguration of Whitefield Metro Line. PM Modi is also expected to take a ride in the newly to be launched metro train. PM will also address a public meeting in Davangere after the inauguration. This will be the first address of PM Modi after the works for the Assembly polls began in Karnataka. Overall, 10 lakh people are expected to attend the rally of which 3 lakh people will be from Davangere district alone, said Davangere BJP MP GM Siddeshwar, as per PTI. On Saturday night, PM will travel back to Shivamogga to fly to Delhi.The PM was last in Karnataka for the inauguration of Bengaluru-Mysuru Expressway in Mandya and the IIT campus in Dharwad. The visit comes as the Election Commission is likely to announce the schedule for Assembly elections which are to be held before May. Union Home Minister Amit Shah visited Karnataka on Friday and he is scheduled to make another visit to the poll-bound state on Sunday. This election is important for both the national parties--Congress and BJP--since they directly lock horns with each other in the polls. However, this is a three-faced election since JD(S) has a decent support base in Karnataka and both the national parties have had an alliance with JD(S) in the past.ALSO READ: PM Modi On His Seventh Visit To Poll-Bound Karnataka Today, To Address Mega Rally At Davangere
