Union Home Minister Amit Shah will be visiting Bihar, more specifically the Muslim-dominated Seemanchal area of the State, his first such visit after the Janata Dal (U) parted ways with the BJP to ally with the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) to form government.
Senior sources in the BJP have confirmed that Mr. Shah will visit Bihar on September 23-24 and will address two rallies, one in Purnea and another in Kishanganj, both in the Seemanchal area.
"Amit Shahji will be in Patna first for a meeting of the core group of the BJP. There will be a review of the programme of senior leaders of the party who are to visit 200 Assembly segments in the State. After that there will be two public rallies, one in Purnea and another in Kishanganj," said the source.
