PM Modi to address ‘Mahasankalp’ rally in Chhattisgarh on conclusion of BJP’s ‘Parivartan Yatras’

On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will speak at a rally in the poll-bound state of Chhattisgarh following the conclusion of two ‘Parivartan Yatras’ organized by the BJP. The ‘Parivartan Mahasankalp’ rally in Bilaspur, which has electoral importance because the division has 24 of the state’s 90 assembly seats, will feature PM Modi’s speech.
On September 12, the first Parivartan Yatra set off from Dantewada in Chhattisgarh’s south, and on September 15, the second one did the same from Jashpur in the north. The first Parivartan Yatra traveled 21 districts over three divisions over a distance of 1,728 kilometers in 16 days, from Dantewada to Bilaspur. More than 45 public meetings, 32 welcome meetings and a roadshow was held during the yatra.
This will be PM Modi’s third visit to the Congress-ruled state and second visit to Bilaspur division within 15 days. The second yatra started with BJP leaders taking blessings of Goddess Khudiyarani and covered a distance of 1,261 km in 12 days, touching 39 assembly constituencies in 14 districts of two divisions.
More than 39 general meetings, 53 welcome meetings were held during the yatra. BJP did well in Bilaspur in the 2018 assembly polls and its 7 of 15 seats came from this division of the state. “Our government had changed the face of the state through development works. Since the time of undivided Madhya Pradesh, the state which was considered backward started to be recognized across the country as that of opportunities,” a senior leader of BJP said.
