PM Modi has begun his 2 day trip to Bangladesh. This is Prime Minister's first international trip after the Covid 19 outbreak. As PM's visit comes at a time when West Bengal will just enter the first phase of polling, know how the visit holds a greater significance than strengthening foreign ties.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has left for Bangladesh today and this is his first foreign visit after Coronavirus hit the country. PM Modi's visit just comes a day ahead of the first phase of voting in Bengal tomorrow. Prime Minister's visit holds a lot of importance with respect to the West Bengal Assembly elections as he will visit the temple of Matua society in Bangladesh.

Bangladesh is ready to welcome PM Modi

Bangladesh is all set to welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi to take part in the Golden Jubilee celebrations of the country's independence and also the birth centenary of Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

On his 2 day visit, PM Modi will hold talks with Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina and participate in the 50th-anniversary celebrations of the nation, and Sheikh Mujib ur Rahman’s 100th birth anniversary. He will also visit Sheikh Mujib’s grave outside Dhaka, along with a temple and a shrine for the Matua community. He will also pay respect to Harichand Thakur at his shrine in Orakandi. Thakur was the founder of the Matua sect, a community that holds significance in the upcoming polls in West Bengal. He is also likely to visit the “Sugandha Shaktipith” (Satipith) temple in Shikarpur in Barishal district.

The stage is set for polling in the first phase of West Bengal Assembly elections. The first phase on March 27 will cover 30 constituencies. The Election Commission of India has made elaborate arrangements for the smooth conduct of the democratic exercise.
