Prime Minister Narendra Modi will on Monday address a public rally in Jaipur, a culmination of a series of parivartan sankalp yatras taken out by the BJP in poll-bound Rajasthan, a Union minister said.
Women in large numbers will attend the 'Parivartan Sankalp Mahasabha' to thank Modi for the Women's Reservation Bill, Union Minister of State Arjun Ram Meghwal said on Sunday.
He said 42 blocks have been set up at the venue of the rally and each block will be commanded by a woman who will oversee the arrangements there.
'PM Modi will arrive at the rally in an open jeep,' Meghwal told reporters here.
Union Minister and BJP's election in-charge for Rajasthan Prahlad Joshi oversaw the final preparations for the rally in Dadiya village. He said people are determined to remove Congress from power in the state where elections are due later this year.
'Our Parivartan Sankalp Yatra received tremendous support with large crowds attending the meetings,' Joshi said, adding people from across the state will gather in Jaipur on Monday for Modi's rally.
The prime minister will also pay tributes to Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay on his birth anniversary in Dhankya village before addressing the public rally.
Earlier in the day, Union Minister Gajendra Singh met former chief minister Vasundhara Raje at her residence. The meeting lasted for an hour, sources said.
The BJP's four parivartan yatras covered all the 200 Assembly constituencies in the state.
The first yatra was flagged off by party president J P Nadda from Ranthambore, Sawai Madhopur on September 2, and the second by Union Home Minister Amit Shah from Beneshwar Dham in Dungarpur on September 3.
The third yatra was launched by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh from Ramdevra in Jaisalmer on September 4, and the fourth by Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari from Gotamedi, Hanumangarh on September 5.
