Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be visiting his home state Gujarat today. The PM is expected to address a gathering of BJP workers at a village near Gandhinagar.

As part of his visit, the prime minister will address the 'Gujarat Gaurav Mahasammelan' which is being organized by the state BJP to mark the conclusion of its 'Gujarat Gaurav Yatra'.

I bow to the people of Gujarat for blessing BJP for decades. We will always fulfil the dreams of every Gujarati with full strength & vigour

Earlier the prime minister said that the two Gujarat Gaurav Yatra's displayed the spirit of people's faith in Gujarat's development and good governance.

Senior leaders of the party joined the 15-day march, which was launched on October 1. The march covered a distance of around 4,471 kilometres, spread over 149 of the 182 Assembly constituencies in the state, Gujarat BJP chief Jitu Vaghani said.

"Tomorrow, the prime minister will give his guidance to around seven lakh BJP workers at the Gujarat Gaurav Mahasammelan to be held in Bhat village," he said.

Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani, BJP national president Amit Shah and many other leaders of the party would be present, he added.

Last week, Modi had visited Gujarat to inaugurate and lay foundation stones of various projects in Rajkot, Vadnagar, Gandhinagar and Bharuch. He had also held a roadshow in his hometown Vadnagar on October 8.

Assembly elections are due in Gujarat later this year.
