The BJP has scheduled a rally in Raipur on July 7 to kick off its election campaign in Chhattisgarh. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be leading the rally in an attempt to regain power from the Congress, which has governed the state since 2018.
After being out of power for five years, the BJP aims to take advantage of the Congress government’s recent unpopularity in Chhattisgarh. The state has been facing farmer protests, and the Congress has faced allegations of corruption.
The BJP believes that Modi’s popularity will play a crucial role in winning back power in Chhattisgarh. Given his popularity in the state, a large crowd is expected to attend the rally, energizing the BJP’s cadre and volunteers.
Not taking the BJP’s challenge lightly, the Congress is planning a series of counter-rallies and events in the upcoming weeks. They seek to convince voters that they are the best party to lead the state.
The Chhattisgarh assembly elections are scheduled for December 2023. With the rally in Raipur, the BJP aims to start its campaign on a strong note.
