Prime Minister Narendra Modi will return to the Bihar assembly election campaign on October 2, for the first time since the poll schedule announcement, with a rally in Banka.


BJP chief Amit Shah will hold meets with workers across the state from September 30.

Bihar BJP spokesperson Sanjay Mayukh said Modi will address a big rally in Banka which goes to polls in the first phase on October 12.

BJP had lost from Banka in Lok Sabha polls last year and it believes that a Modi rally can help it regain ground there. Many BJP leaders are going to try and cash in on the Prime Minister’s popularity while seeking votes in the poll bound state.


To rally party workers around, Amit Shah, along with Bihar election in-charge Ananth Kumar, will hold nine meetings with them between September 30 and October 5 and also address three public meetings, Mayukh said.

Altogether 586 candidates are in the fray from 49 seats in the first phase of Bihar Assembly elections on the last day of withdrawal of nominations on Saturday. The BJP has expressed confidence of emerging victorious in the state.
