July 25, 2015 09:45

The Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance will on Saturday sound begul of campaigning for the forthcoming assembly elections in Bihar with Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressing a rally at Chakkar Maidan in Muzaffarpur.

Union Agriculture Minister Radha Mohan Singh, who is on the Opposition's target for blaming love affairs for farmers' suicide, said the turnout at the rally would be a historic one.

Singh, who is supervising preparations for the PM's Muzaffarpur rally, said the event at Chakkar Maidan will be bigger than any other rallies held in Muzaffarpur since Independence.

In a jibe at political rivals, Singh said some people have already started feeling dizzy at the mere thought about the impact of Saturday's rally.

"Kai logon ko Chakkar Maidan ke naam se chakkar aa raha hai (Many are feeling dizzy at the mere name of Chakkar Maidan)," the senior BJP leader from Bihar said.

The PM's rally would also showcase unity of the NDA in the run-up to the Bihar Assembly polls as all top leaders of BJP and coalition partners like Ramvilas Paswan (LJP), Upendra Kushwaha (RLSP) and Jitan Ram Manjhi (HAM, Secular) would attend the rally with leaders and workers of their respective parties, Singh said.
