As Gujarat prepares for a political spectacle, both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi are set to visit the state for separate two-day tours. Their simultaneous presence is expected to intensify the political landscape, with both leaders engaging in key events aimed at strengthening their respective parties ahead of upcoming elections.
Prime Minister Modi will be in Gujarat on March 7 and 8, attending various programs in Surat and Navsari districts. His visit will focus on government welfare initiatives, including meetings with beneficiaries and participation in women empowerment events. As per agency reports, Modi is expected to use this platform to rally support for his party ahead of the upcoming elections. On March 7, he will address a massive public gathering at Neelgiri Ground in Surat’s Limbayat area, where he will distribute special kits to elderly beneficiaries under government schemes. Later, he will stay overnight at the Surat Circuit House before heading to Navsari the next day. On March 8, which coincides with International Women’s Day, Modi will participate in a special event dedicated to women empowerment, followed by another large public meeting before returning to Delhi. His latest visit comes just days after his private tour to Gujarat on March 1, during which he visited districts in the Saurashtra region, attended multiple programs, and paid his respects at the Somnath Temple.
Meanwhile, Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, will also be in Gujarat on March 7 and 8. His visit is focused on election strategy discussions, as he will meet party officials, senior leaders, and grassroots workers in Ahmedabad. The visit is aimed at bolstering preparations for the 2027 Gujarat Assembly elections. Rahul is expected to emphasize party restructuring and mobilizing workers at the grassroots level. Additionally, he will address Congress members across the state to boost morale and outline a new strategy for the party. Notably, the Congress party’s national convention is scheduled for April 8-9 in Ahmedabad, making this visit strategically significant. His meetings may lead to tactical shifts in Congress’s election approach.
With both Modi and Rahul in Gujarat at the same time, the political atmosphere in the state is set to heat up. Party leaders and workers from both sides are expected to display their enthusiasm and mobilize support in full force. The simultaneous visits underscore the growing electoral momentum, as both BJP and Congress gear up to sharpen their strategies ahead of the upcoming elections.
