Ranchi, Jharkhand: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will hold a mega roadshow in Ranchi on Sunday, ahead of the state assembly elections. Jharkhand BJP co-in-charge and Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said that PM Modi will conduct a ‘historic’ 3 km roadshow today.
“PM Modi will hold a historic 3 km roadshow in Ranchi, where a large number of people are expected to show up. It will be a historic moment,” CM Sarma told ANI. Several senior BJP leaders will also participate in this high-profile roadshow.
Earlier, PM Modi addressed rallies in Chaibasa and Garhwa on November 5, a day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah released the BJP’s manifesto for Jharkhand polls.
During his Chaibasa rally, PM Modi highlighted the party’s slogan of ‘roti, beti aur maati’ (bread, daughters, and land), saying people want BJP-led NDA to come to power in the assembly polls. “The entire Jharkhand is saying today – ‘Roti, beti aur maati ki pukaar, Jharkhand me BJP-NDA sarkar’… When the BJP government was formed for the first time, Atal Bihari Bajpayee got the opportunity in Delhi to serve the nation, Jharkhand was formed,” PM Modi said.

During this, he accused the Congress, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) of vote-bank politics and of jeopardizing the identity of Jharkhand.
“JMM-Congress-RJD have endangered the identity of Jharkhand. Infiltrators are their biggest vote bank. Infiltrators are targeting tribal daughters through lies, fraud and deceit, they are marrying and snatching tribals’ land. They are snatching your – daughter, bread and land. I assure you that as soon as the BJP government is formed in Jharkhand, every step will be taken to stop infiltration,” PM modi said.
PM Modi said he has seen the struggle of poor closely and biggest schemes in the last 10 years have been for the poor and 25 crore people have come out of poverty in the past decade.
“They are snatching your – daughter, bread and land… We will bring a law to register the land in the name of tribal daughters… They have found another way – they are declaring schools, colleges and universities as minority institutions – it ends the reservations for Dalits, Tribals and OBCs in these institutions,” he added.
The 81-member Jharkhand Assembly will go to polls in two phases on November 13 and 20, with vote counting scheduled for November 23.
