Modi to address 'Hunkar' Rally in Bihar's Muzaffarpur Today

With an aim to grab the maximum share of 40 Lok Sabha seats in the state, BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi will address his 'Hunkar rally' in Muzaffarpur district of Bihar on Monday.

The rally assumes significance as Modi will share dais with Lok Janshakti Party supremo Ram Vilas Paswan who returned to the NDA fold after a long gap of 12 years. Ram Vilas's son Chirag Paswan will also be present at the rally.


Paswan's LJP sealed a pre-poll alliance with the BJP after he was offered seven Lok Sabha seats in Bihar.

Modi's previous 'Hunkar Rally' at Patna in October last year was rocked by serial blasts within the venue of the gathering, in which eight people were killed.

The incident had triggered a war of words between the BJP and former NDA ally Janata Dal (United) which is currently ruling the state. BJP's senior leadership had accused Bihar CM Nitish Kumar of not providing enough security for Modi's rally.

Sharad Yadav-led JD(U) parted ways with the BJP after being together in the NDA for 17 years.
