Modi to visit Mumbai today

Bharatiya Janata Party’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi will on Monday land in Mumbai, a day after addressing his first – and a mammoth – rally in Delhi in his new avatar.

Modi, who is not scheduled to address any rally in Mumbai, will land here at around 4 pm.

The Gujarat Chief Minister will drive down to inaugurate Mumbai Diamond Merchant Association’s Diamond Hall at the Bharat Diamond Bourse in Bandra-Kurla Complex. According to reports, he is also scheduled to attend a function lined up with an industry association later in the evening.

This will be Modi’s first visit to Mumbai after he was declared as prime ministerial candidate.
