- RAMASHANKAR @ Patna

PRIME Minister Narendra Modi will be back in Bihar on June 20, the fourth time this year and his seventh visit to the state after he took oath for the third term in June 2024. This time around, Modi will visit Siwan, considered a stronghold of main opposition RJD, where he is scheduled to address a 'mega political rally'.

A team of senior BJP leaders on Monday visited Siwan to take stock of preparations for the Modi rally.

During the RJD regime, then RJD MP Mohammad Shahabuddin was said to call the shots in Siwan; merely his name spelt terror across Bihar, observers say. The don-turned-politician's family is considered close to RJD chief Lalu Prasad to this day.
