Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address two election rallies in Bihar's Muzaffarpur and Chhapra on Thursday, October 30, ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), PM Modi announced that he would speak at Muzaffarpur at 11 AM and later at Chhapra at 12:45 PM.

"My family members from Bihar are themselves in the electoral fray to ensure a resounding victory for the BJP-NDA. In this atmosphere of enthusiasm, tomorrow morning around 11 AM in Muzaffarpur and in the afternoon at 12:45 PM in Chhapra, I will have the good fortune to engage in dialogue with the public. I am confident that in the assembly elections, once again, my brothers and sisters of the state will sound the conch of great victory," the Prime Minister said in his post.

According to the news agency ANI, earlier today, Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi addressed the Mahagathbandhan's joint rally in Muzaffarpur, where he launched a sharp attack on PM Modi. Gandhi accused the Prime Minister of being willing to "do anything for votes", reiterating his allegations of "vote theft" in the Bihar elections.

The Congress leader said, "He (PM Modi) just wants your vote. If you ask him to do a drama for votes, he will. You can make him do anything. If you tell Narendra Modi to dance, he will dance."

"They are engaged in stealing your votes. Because they want to end this election disease, I am telling you, they stole elections in Maharashtra, they stole elections in Haryana, and they will try their best in Bihar," he added, reported news agency ANI.

Meanwhile, taking forward NDA's campaign in Bihar, Union Minister Amit Shah held rallies in Begusaria, Samastipur and Darbhanga today.
