Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to address more than 10 public rallies during the first two phases of polling, scheduled for November 6 and November 11, covering a total of 122 assembly constituencies, sources said. Sources said that the PM Modi's rallies will target areas where the NDA's influence is relatively weak but where the Prime Minister maintains a strong personal following. Each of Modi's rallies is expected to cover 15 to 20 assembly segments and will be supported by live telecasts in remote regions.
