Prime Minister Narendra Modi will embark on mega rallies in Jharkhand ahead of May 13 elections on three parliamentary seats from May 3 onwards. As per his itinerary, the PM will hold a rally in Chaibasa on May 3 afternoon for Singhbhum seat while he will address two rallies in Palamu and Lohardaga on May 4.
In between these three rallies, the Prime Minister is all likely to hold a 10 km road show from Birsa Munda International Airport to Raj Bhawan seeking support and votes for BJP candidate and sitting MP Sanjay Seth--who filed his nomination for Ranchi Lok Sabha seat today.
Within six month, this will be Modi’s second road show in State Capital. The last time he held the road show was in November much before the election dates were announced. It is all likely that Prime Minister Narendra Modi might hold a road show in Ranchi on the evening of May 3. On May 3, the Prime Minister will return to Ranchi after the public meeting in support of BJP candidate Geeta Koda in Chaibasa.
While returning from Chaibasa to Raj Bhavan, a road show is being planned in support of BJP candidate Sanjay Seth from Airport to Ratu Road. State BJP is giving the final shape to the plan of the Prime Minister’s program.
On May 4, the Prime Minister will attend a public meeting organized at Chianki Airport in Palamu and address a meeting for BJP candidate Sameer Oraon from Lohardaga in Sisai, Gumla.
After returning from Sisai, the Prime Minister will leave for Delhi from Ranchi Airport. However, the state government has not yet received official information about the Prime Minister’s program.
The November last year road show was a big hit as thousands of people lined up on both sides of the stretch to greet PM Modi. The two day visit of PM Modi assumes importance as Prime Minister Narendra Modi will blow the poll bugle in Jharkhand from Chaibasa on May 3.
The PM on his two day visit will cover all four Lok Sabha seats will goes to poll on phase four. The four seats which goes to poll on May 13 are, Lohardaga, Chaibasa, Khunti and Palamu. From Chaibasa the party has given ticket to former Congress MP Geeta Koda.
Ahead of the Lok Sabha election, the Congress has got a big jolt as its lone MP in Jharkhand Geeta Koda on February 26 joined Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Ranchi. Koda, wife of former Chief Minister of Jharkhand Madhu Koda, won the 2019 Lok Sabha seat from Chaibasa by defeating the BJP candidate Lakshman Giluwa. She joined the party in the presence of Jharkhand BJP State president Babulal Marandi and Leader of Opposition in Jharkhand Assembly Amar Kumar Bauri.
The JMM has fielded Joba Manjhi from the seat. From Lohardaga the party has given ticket to BJP former Rajya Sabha MP Samir Oroan, while from Khunti the party has given ticket to union agriculture minister Arjun Munda. From Palamu the party has reposed faith on sitting MP VD Ram.
