The BJP is planning a total of 40 public meetings in one month with star campaigners led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, J.P. Nadda, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath among other senior BJP leaders, while the Congress’ campaign is looking forward to meetings to be attended and addressed by Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi and senior leaders, with one or two possible meetings to be addressed by Sonia Gandhi.
