Union Home Minister Amit Shah is all set to address a mega rally in Bihar's Lakhisarai on Thursday. The Home Minister will visit Bihar for the first time after the opposition meeting on June 23, hosted by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar in Patna.

He will offer prayers at Ashok Dham, a famous shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, before addressing a public meeting there." He added, "All people of the state, particularly those in Munger Lok Sabha constituency under which Lakhisarai falls, are welcome to attend Shah's public meeting where he will expound on the progress made by the country under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership."
