 "Modi to address rally in Bihar's Purnia today")
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi will address a rally here today.
The Gujarat Chief Minister will address a public meeting at Purnia's historic Ranbhoomi Ground which has a capacity to accommodate 1.5 to two lakh people.
Modi's last rally in Bihar was in Muzaffarpur where LJP leader Ram Vilas Paswan shared the dais after his party's alliance with the BJP was announced.
Taking a dig at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Modi had said there is no space for hypocrisy in public life, and added that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) will keep on expanding.
He asserted that for other parties secularism is religion first but for the BJP it is India first.
"I say stop price rise, they say stop Modi. I say stop corruption, they says stop Modi. For them secularism is appeasement for all, justice for none. For us it is justice for all, appeasement for none," he added.
