The constituency of Cooch Behar is set ablaze with anticipation for a dynamic Lok Sabha campaign on Thursday, as both Prime Minister Modi and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee gear up for back-to-back rallies. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is slated to deliver a public address in Cooch Behar, West Bengal, as part of the BJP's Lok Sabha campaign today. Following suit, Bengal's CM Mamata Banerjee will take the stage to rally support for the Trinamool Congress in the Mathabhanga area of the Cooch Behar district. This election season marks a historic moment as two political heavyweights converge to campaign in the same constituency on the same day.
Prior to his engagement in West Bengal, PM Modi launched the NDA's Lok Sabha campaign in Bihar on April 4th with a fervent rally, marking his first appearance in the state since the election announcement. Addressing a crowd at Jamui around midday, PM Modi initiated the campaign in Bihar, where Jamui is one of the four Lok Sabha seats set for polls in the initial phase on April 19th. BJP ally Chirag Paswan, who has passed on the baton to his brother-in-law Arun Bharti after representing Jamui, a reserved seat, for two consecutive terms, lauded the Prime Minister for his gesture.
Meanwhile, Union Home Minister Amit Shah embarks on a two-day visit to Tamil Nadu, where he plans to conduct four road shows and a public meeting starting from Thursday. Shah's strategic visit to Tamil Nadu holds significant weight in the state's political landscape. He will kick off his campaign with a road show in Theni town on Thursday afternoon, followed by a pivotal public meeting in Madurai later in the evening. Notably, his itinerary includes a notable visit to the Meenakshi Amman Temple in Madurai, symbolizing an effort to connect with the religious sentiments of the electorate.
