Ahmedabad: Prime Minister Modi is on a two-day visit to Gujarat, his home state, and held the roadshow from the Ahmedabad airport to the Gujarat BJP headquarters.
A day after scoring victories in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Goa, and Manipur, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has now shifted focus to poll-bound Gujarat and held a huge roadshow in Ahmedabad on Friday (March 11, 2022).
Earlier on Thursday, BJP became the only party in over 30 years to get re-elected for a second term in Uttar Pradesh and also retained Uttarakhand, Manipur, and Goa. The saffron party increased its vote share in almost all the states that went to polls including a marginal rise in Punjab.
At around 4 PM, Prime Minister will also participate in Gujarat Panchayat Mahasammelan and address the gathering.
Besides Gujarat, elections are also due in Himachal Pradesh. The Congress had sprung a surprise by defeating the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) in three assembly bypolls in Himachal Pradesh in October last year. The BJP had also lost the bye-election to the Mandi Lok Sabha seat in the hill-state.
Elections are also due in Meghalaya, Nagaland, and Tripura early next year where the BJP or its alliance partners are in power.
