On the eve of the fourth phase of polling, Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, held a roadshow in Patna for Patna Sahib Bharatiya Janata Party candidate Ravi Shankar Prasad. It was for the first time that a Prime Minister had held a roadshow in Bihar.
Starting from Dakbungalow roundabout at the heart of Patna, his roadshow covered Bhattacharya Road, Uma Cinema, and Thakurbari Road, before concluding at Udyog Bhavan near Gandhi Maidan.
BJP workers, supporters and local residents gathered in large numbers to catch a glimpse of the PM. The roadshow is also expected to have an impact on the neighbouring Patliputra seat in Patna district where BJP candidate Ram Kripal Yadav is up against Misa Bharti, eldest daughter of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Lalu Prasad.
