As the Lok Sabha elections progress, the political arena is abuzz with activity. In the midst of campaigning and voting, today marks significant developments, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s highly anticipated roadshow in Varanasi, his constituency.
With four phases of voting completed, attention shifts to the turnout figures for the fourth phase, encompassing 96 constituencies across 10 states and Union Territories. The turnout trends have been closely scrutinized, particularly after slight decreases in participation observed in earlier phases.
Prime Minister Modi’s roadshow in Varanasi is expected to be a grand affair, reflecting the fervor and excitement surrounding his candidacy. Following the roadshow, Modi will file his nomination papers, a symbolic moment in the electoral process.
Earlier engagements for the Prime Minister include addressing an event in Hajipur, the former seat of late leader Ram Vilas Paswan, where Chirag Paswan, his son and Lok Janskhakti Party chief, is a candidate. Modi’s itinerary also includes public meetings in Muzaffarpur and Saran, where he will extend his support to Chirag Paswan’s campaign.
Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi, a prominent figure in the Congress party, is scheduled to embark on a campaign trail in Rae Bareli, Uttar Pradesh. With the fifth phase of voting approaching on May 20, Gandhi’s efforts aim to bolster support for the Congress in the region.
As the political landscape continues to evolve, stay tuned for updates on the unfolding events and their implications on the electoral dynamics.
