Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and BJP president Amit Shah among others will also attend the 'Kisan Kalyan' rally in the district.
"The Prime Minister will address the Kisan rally in the Rubber factory ground at Fatehganj and elaborate arrangements have been made to make it a grand success," state unit president of BJP, Laxmikant Bajpai said.
Modi will leave for New Delhi in the evening after addressing the rally, Bajpai said.
Modi said just as people did not have to attend classes
to learn how to use mobile phones, they can now use the device in the same way to carry out monetary transactions.
"Have you learnt how to charge your mobile by going to school? You have learnt to operate WhatsApp. Technology has become easy. If you have (a) bank account, you can purchase whatever you want," he added.
Amid the opposition parties creating uproar over poor implementation of demonetisation and stalling Parliament for days, Modi said he is aware that people are facing inconvenience.
"The NDA govt at the Centre is fully dedicated to the poor, farmers, villagers and dalits," he said amid applause from the crowd.
Modi also attacked the Samajwadi Party government in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh, saying it was not interested in implementing central schemes for farmers.
Thanking the people attending his rally, he said that in 2014 elections when he was himself contesting from Varanasi, he visited many areas of the state but the crowd was not as big.
