This visit will mark the second time in 17 days that PM Modi will be in Jharkhand, following his previous visit to Jamshedpur on September 15.
The ‘Parivartan Yatra’ began on September 20 from six different locations in the state and has seen participation from central and state-level BJP leaders who have been energising the party’s workers. The yatra has travelled through 200 blocks across Jharkhand, covering a distance of 5000 kilometres, and will conclude in Hazaribagh on October 2.
Top BJP leaders like party president JP Nadda, Home Minister Amit Shah, and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, along with other central ministers, have already participated in this initiative.
